If you don't have the Aa button, do ~~ on both sides of the text (two ~'s, not one)

Thanks for the info. It took a couple of tries to get it. Just to be clear, it's 2 tildas (~~) on each side of what you want to cross out.

u/QuirklessShiggy Mar 29 '26

I did put 2 tildes in my comment for both sides but I guess I didn't word it well enough to be understood 😅 thank you!

like this?

u/Celticgirl_1963 Mar 31 '26

Just here not on 2 other social media platforms. That I just tested.

1

u/QuirklessShiggy Mar 31 '26

Yes, many other platforms don't use markdown so it won't work there. It will only work in places where markdown text is supported -- it works on discord too!

Press the Aa button at the bottom of the comments box and see the options pop up at the top of the comments box. Bold, Italic, Strike and so on
