What steps did you take to fix the formatting?

(Save me the Unicode identifier / dive into console :) )

I just grabbed the original program from Wikipedia and put it in a code block.

Still curious why your comment doesn’t show on Lemmy.world!

General ban by an admin being an asshat. Haven't bothered asking nicely to get reinstated.

Lemmy desperately needs some default notification, because what newbie is checking a site's modlog with any regularity? I didn't even know it existed. I was bickering with some troll who said 'you're cruising for a report, mister!' despite being far further over-the-line than me, and I said, that's adorable, knock yourself out. And then things so thoroughly stopped working that I assumed my LW account had been straight-up deleted.

Meanwhile, that troll suffered no consequences whatsoever. Despite starting shit, getting personal, and being wrong. My accordingly low opinion of moderation across Lemmy has since been vindicated more often than not. This was the largest instance that didn't demand "civility" as a constant choke-collar, and the worst problems I've had have still been mods flying off the handle in cases where I've been perfectly polite.

Apparently I can't say please and thank you without people taking it as vicious sarcasm, so I don't fuckin' try and I don't fuckin' worry about it. It's been freeing.

You’re cruising for a double report now, mister!

Aww man. Good point about the notification. Better luck in the future.
