put yours in the comments if you want, here’s some that I’ve thought of

  1. to separate two lines, you need a full empty line between them, otherwise they will combine into one line. (this is not always required, check your preview)

any more empty lines will be squashed down to one, though zero width spaces can help with this

line 1

line 2

  1. you can make spoiler dropdowns that don’t have any text next to the arrow by using a zero-width space instead of the second ‘spoiler’ text

  1. you can place images next to text to make pseudo-emojis, just make sure they are small so that they are a similar size to the text

  2. you can embed things other than images: gifs, audio, videos, etc

whether you can actually upload them may depend on your instance, you can use hosting websites to do this, just make sure the text is formatted correctly ![](file url.file extension)

  1. it’s a good idea to read the instance rules of whatever community you’re posting to, as well as the rules of the community itself. lemmy’s decentralized nature makes it a lot easier to miss out on instance rules
a more subjective thing about lemmy that will undoubtedly take over the comments of this post

lemmy is a lot more politically motivated, and has it’s share of dictator mods. for this reason, many people block the lemmy.ml and hexbear.net instances

I was gonna add more but I am currently sick and now out of energy
