      You’re welcome! For reference it’s a code block, all formatting goes out the window, returns are considered returns, and a monospaced font. You use three backticks (```) on a line above and below your “code” (you can technically specify the code type at the end of that first back tick line) and then go to town between them.

        I use them for actual code but the ability to use them to get normal returns somehow hadn’t occurred to me haha

          You can also have “normal returns”, or line breaks instead of new paragraph, by putting a double space at the end of a line:

          Hello
          Double
          Spaced
          Lemmy!

            Omg yes I forgot about this thank you

            Newlines are great
            But they should just format them normally
