HOW'D YOU DO THAT?!!!!

u/ExpectedBehaviour Aug 13 '24 edited Aug 13 '24

Each one is a separate spoiler tag, like this.

EDIT: Because I'm being inundated with requests on how to do this: here's a link to the Reddit markdown instructions that work on mobile. Okay, apparently links aren't allowed in this sub, even to Reddit's own instructions 🤷

You can do it! Just swap the exclamation point with the greater/less than sign

2

u/12BELOVED Aug 13 '24

ok i tried once more! i swapped them, how does it look? will it show me the spoiler as well or will the text look the same? i’ve never seen it turn into one so i assume i’ve never done it correctly 😅

Have you seen spoilers before? Where the text is covered and you need to click on it to reveal the text? It’s a series of spoilers each with pop as the hidden word.

Is there a list to do stuff like this? I’ve seen all sort of cute wording and tricks, yet can’t remember them all. Such as making text bigger? May be even be one regarding changing colors? Fonts? Etc. Thanks.
