Another anecdote: I'm doing this thing where:
Mostly I do this bc step 2 is fun, but it also helps advertise community A to community B when I mention it in comments.
Anyway I posted an example of this last Friday and added a bunch of notes about the edits and when I was checking out wat the post looked like, I realized: that's a huge freakin wall of text. So then I put it under a spoiler tag, and checked it out again. That's when TIL you need to put a space between the ":::" and the "spoiler" or else it won't work on all clients.
While I was doing this, the post was getting a couple downvotes, I think bc of the wall of text. It was getting like 14 up to 4 down, tho that rate levelled off after I put the spoiler tags. Note to self: be careful of walls of text.
