I imagine they might have been bamboozled like I have been quite a few times, where a proper formatted line break is actually 2 line breaks in the editor instead of just one?
Just a guess haha.
line break test. one. meow meow. two
meow
EDIT: You are correct. One line break does fk all. Two "Enters" are required
That's the same in any editor.
If you are at the end of a sentence, and you want to start a new paragraph, you always hit the enter key twice.
What?
Clicking enter while typing in a comment/post will put you on a new line in the text editor, but Markdown interprets this as a regular space.
Having two line breaks (enter twice) in the editor tells Markdown to leave an empty line and then start in a new line.
You would be hitting enter twice to start a new paragraph in any Lemmy editor. Thats how you always start a new paragraph.
What do you mean? In Word, you click enter once, and the paragraph spacing is done automatically based on existing paramters. While not every word processor is Word, I'd argue that the one-enter process I described is still a pretty legitimate form of starting a paragraph.
We're on Lemmy.
You're at the end of a sentence, you just typed the period. Now you want to start a new paragraph. You hit the enter key, twice.
If you specifically meant on Lemmy, you shouldn't use language like "any editor" lol. Anyways, you edited your old comment just to continue being an asshat, so this was a waste of time. Bye!
Next time I'll have my lawyers review my comments before posting, and be sure to say something along the lines of "any editor *that you would use to post a comment on an Internet forum, and not while writing a word processing document". /s
I've got to give up assuming on Lemmy, as 'people' argue about the weirdest fucking minutia here.
Any Markdown editor, yes. But not everyone is familiar with Markdown formatting. People coming from text editors, forums, and word processors expect a single enter to start a new paragraph.
Even in a text forum, or a text editor, you usually double-enter between paragraphs. Single enter just looks too crowded.
I'm using the website, and the standard editor. /shrug
I'm not aware of anyone who uses a word processor to leave a comment on Lemmy.
