By the way, you can have `Markdown` in Lemmy post titles
EDIT: on web, it renders like this

clot27, Wow, amazing
Feathercrown, Oh no
amon, Oh no indeed
AmidFuror, I'd settle for good spelling and grammar. Once most posters have mastered that, let them play with the formatting.
driving_crooner, If you have markdown on your title, then is not being rendered by Jerboa.
f4f4f4f4f4f4f4f4, Do you also have the Android weirdness in which the tick marks appear to be in a different place? (Not Jerboa-specific)

driving_crooner, The tick marks appear correctly for me.
kat, Sync for lemmy works
andrew_s, You can, but maybe you shouldn't. Given that this post is in the fediverse community, I don't feel too bad about mentioning that Lemmy is part of a federated network with PieFed and MBIN (I try not to bollock on too much about the platform I happen to be using).
In the ActivityPub JSON for this post, there is no indication that this field contains MarkDown. If anything, it says the opposite, it says it contains HTML. It's therefore not unreasonable for other platforms to render it as such.
Given this, and the poor support for mobile clients indicated in the comments, and the fact that it's only a subset of MarkDown tags, but include ones that aren't part of CommonMark standard, I'd argue that it's not necessarily a good idea.
schnurrito, Do you know a way to see the ActivityPub JSON for fediverse objects?
andrew_s, Yes - it's easy to do from a command line. For this post, it would be:
curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' --location <a href="https://lemmy.world/post/24241974" rel="nofollow ugc" target="_blank">https://lemmy.world/post/24241974</a> | jq .
it looks like ```

BentiGorlich, you can use https://browser.pub I like it very much for that use case :)
Fitik, @amon Doesn't render it on Mbin
bdonvr, You can also edit them after the fact unlike other platforms
