        I got a notification when you responded and it was “>” but it renders correctly once I open the post.

        edit fucking hell it did it even in quotes, I meant >

        had to use a greek question mark so it doesn’t render

          You can also use & to get &.

          Edit: Fuck, I meant &

          Edit 2: &

          Okay nevermind, either lemmy or sync resolves html entities recursively apparently.

          Edit 3: &

            finally someone who understands the pain

            lemmy doesn’t resolve html entities if put in a code block but sync does

            “wrongly” if in a code block for sure

            I use Sync for lemmy, it’s a mess but it’s the app that’s the closest to Joey for me. They charge 30$ to remove ads or 135$(lifetime, it’s like 3$ monthly) to be able to import/export communities lmao

              Lmao. But quotes won’t change anything i guess. But monospace should do or you maybe able to escape the characters with backslash \

              Lemme try >

              Edit : yeah this works for me.

                  Again i’m having abiguity with works. I mean it shows as ampersand gt semicolon and not a single symbol for me. Are you reffering the same? Is it showing a single > symbol for you?

                    yup. sync seems to parse it and take any & code and renders it as the actual character. lets lest it.

                     " µ ´ ₫ & > <
                    

                    edit:

                    i’m even more confused now
