@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?

@freemo It’s a ‘web font’ thingy! A few are allowed so to say. We use vanilla without any fancy stuff

It looks the same here yes 🙂

@freemo This stuff is supported for example: https://lingojam.com/FancyTextGenerator

@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.

@freemo Yes unfortunately it does.. it renders it kinda aweful actually. Markdown/HTML would be nice but I guess a step to far for most users

@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.
