@2ck @kravietz Yea that confused me as well. If i prop up a wind turbine, which is little more than some metal blades, some wire, and a magnet, I am clearly reducing green house gas emissions.. Yet I wouldnt suddenly out of no where be dumping toxic waste in a river as a consequence of this decision... makes no sense, not sure what he really means.

@GotoTom While I certainly agree that CNN is Fake News and Anderson cooper is a clown and all that, to imply Fox is not fake news is well.. wow, They are horrific too. But hey, to each their own.

Truth...

@design_RG Very strange.. ill have to install firefox here to see if i can replicate it.

@design_RG yea rendered just fine for me on the dark theme...

@design_RG That is very strange indeed, I am using that theme and it seems to work just fine for me.

* Bullet points work
* As does quoting
* and everything else

hmm...

> See, quotes work just fine

This all should work for me (or did a moment ago) in dark theme you mentioned.

@design_RG This is odd. I just switched to a dark theme to fix the dark theme issue you mentioned but turns out all the markdown is rendering just fine for me in dark theme.

Which theme, exactly, are you on that wont render for you?

@design_RG yea thats fair, you could do that. I wouldnt be opposed to making those changes either. Let me get it working in dark theme first though.

@pganssle Thats very fair, and yea there are a lot of things judges can have opinions on where the law either isnt explicit or even just on matters of interpretation of the law. For example how they might handle jury nullification which is routinely strictly prohibited but the law isn't explicitly against it.

This is, I think for a judge to really express the sort of opinions/stances that they are allowed to have would also result in them needs to talk about their stance in a more technical way that may be hard for most people to understand. People are simple they want to hear things like "I'll be tough on drugs" and that sort of campaigning just doesnt line up well with a judge I suppose.

@stux You can always add it in. I just added it here on QOTO and its great. Users can always opt-out too and can turn on stripping of the formatting if they wish.

@design_RG indeed! By the way I have the pleorma instance half-up too.. will probably have a pleorma demo going soon as well which ill put at pleorma.qoto.org just to play with at first.

@design_RG yea 5% is too little but i spent a lot of time tweaking it and different numbers have other issues.. for example if i do a 10% difference then that means h1 would be even larger.. if i start h6 at 110% then h1 would be 160%. Problem is if you start h6 much below 125% it doesnt look like a header it just looks like text. If you start at that point then h1 would be even larger.

What i did was i figured the largest text that is acceptable or even usable is 150% which i set for h1 (as you pointed out even that is a bit too large usually so its clearly on the upper end).. then I picked a percentage for h6 at the smallest useful end of the range (which seemed to be 125%) then just divided it by the headers inbetween.

@pganssle But the point im making is that a judge should not have a position of any kind when it comes to their professional career.. A good judge has only one position, whatever the law says.

As for having some trouble looking them up, I could possibly help with that, what state are you in, court records should be searchable, should be possible for yout o pull up a list of cases the judge was on and read their final notes easily enough.

I didnt mention this feature because it really only effects me and the other moderators.. but man I really like the new "announcement" feature too. It is out of the way tucked inside the home feed and you can only see it if you expand it. But I particularly like how our users can respond to an announcement with emojis :)

@stux Cool. I know by default vanilla mastodon goes out of its way to strip most rich-text markup like bold.. I guess it doesnt strip fonts though.

@stux Ahh ok, cool... I wonder if it would have rendered that way before we added richtext support here.

You are on vanilla mastodon there and it looks bold to you too huh?

@design_RG don't let it fool you that the dark theme is partially rendering the markdown.. that's only because of how i'm implementing the style fix (its a path until next release so i don't need to redo the whole server).. but i will address getting this working on the dark themes now.

@stux Hey is this a markdown/rich-text post or is our new richtext renderer just being buggy? The whole post looks bold to me is that expected?

@design_RG Headers 1 to 6 are all implemented with header 1 being 150% font size and each header drops by 5% with header 6 at 125%. They also have a gradient of bolding added on top of that.

@jojo

I just dont pay attention apparently.
