She liked the "Why we oppose ______________________" format.
This is deep.
Oh God, Lemmy does that too? (Turn your quoted 5 into a 1)
It's just markdown. Following a number with a period and a space is how you tell it to insert a numerical list, which always starts at 1. If you want to avoid that, you need to use the escape character: \
It's just the same way using asterisks around words makes them italic. If you want to actually display the *asterisks* you have to tell it not to do that.
Oh yeah I get that. I had an argument with several reddit admins back when the redesign was first happening about respecting the actual number used rather than starting from 1 and I still, to this day, don't see why this is better in any way. People will ask questions and it will screw up the answer, people will quote from an ordered list and it will screw up the quote, and so on. The only benefit that they could tell me was that if someone was writing their comment and added a new step/list item they don't have to shift the numbers manually, but I don't see how that is worth all the misquotes and issues it causes. Sad to see Lemmy does the same thing, but maybe it can still be fixed.
Classic PEBKAC error. If you wanna quote one item in a numbered list just use the escape character to prevent it from starting it as a new numbered list. Like, if you tried to quote my *asterisks* it would turn the word asterisks italic, which is the exact same issue. But I don't personally think they should remove the asterisks turning things italic, it's a convenient feature.
I'm not saying remove markdown or any of its features, I'm saying use the number provided for ordered lists. This avoids user error and makes for a more predictable user experience. I'm aware of escape characters.
Yeah I'd much much rather have the list automatically re-number everything than have to go do it manually for large lists
And I would rather the other way.
Me out there cross-breeding pants trees for increased pocket size
I had no clue the lack of pockets is an issue that’s existed for over a century now. Ffs clothes companies, just give women’s clothing pockets that work.
