Buenos días mammutidaes, he visto que algunas publicaciones las lanzáis formateadas (bold, italic, etc...)

¿Cómo hacéis esa brujeria?

#mastodon

@lethamburn different Fediverse software allows for such things.

I hope you can read this, I read your post with translation.

@BeAware Yes! I read you correctly My question other than that was whether semantics applies in doing so or is it just something merely aesthetic. Thanks for replying!

@lethamburn well, these softwares that allow it, use Markdown, which is stuff that's like [b]This might be bold[/b] and it might render as bold. However, since we're on mastodon, these things don't render correctly if we make them.

I hope that answers your question, as I didn't fully understand what you meant by semantics.

@BeAware Now I get it Great, the semantics was for screen readers so blind users can detect those emphases.

@lethamburn yeah... unfortunately, I am completely unsure on that because I am not blind and the blind folks in my circle only use mastodon. If you find out though, I'd definitely be interested in your findings, in case I decide to move to such software in the future.

@BeAware I will!!!! Thank you for this reply

@lethamburn no problem, friend.

I'm very knowledgeable in this space so if you have any other questions, especially regarding mastodon, feel free to ask.

I've been here for a year and am almost always online because I am disabled and have plenty time on my hands. Therefore I have had much time to learn lots of things.
