Oh, hi! You again.

I just did a little inventory.

Block spoiler:

Spoiler

Secret

Block spoilers are supported by Summit, Thunder, Sync, Voyager, Jerboa, and the Lemmy web interface.

Inline spoiler: >!secret!<

Inline spoilers are supported by only Eternity and Sync.

Boost and Connect do not seem to support either type.

Which apps have you tried?

You're too helpful haha. I was on sync but I swapped to boost because I liked some of the customization over there. Unfortunately it was already bugging me when I found out the spoiler is broken and that's when I just gave up and went back to sync. I'm not too worried about it. Thank you again though haha

Are there any particular customizations that are important to you? Perhaps I could recommend an app...

[–] Majorllama@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I like most of the sync with is pretty clean aesthetic, but not being able to tag users unless I pay is lame.

Boost lets you tag users but you can't change the color of the up/down vote buttons and you I was unable to use spoiler tags.

I haven't tried any other but I did see some that showed the number of exact up and down votes each comment and post had that looked cool.

So I guess in my perfect world it would be an app that lets me use any colors for things I could want, has working spoiler key, lets me tag users and shows me the up/downvote numbers. That last thing being the least important I would say.

You might want to check out Thunder (GitHub, Google Play). I can confirm that it has all of the above features.

I'll definitely check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.
