Hehe, the top one is slightly off for me, but uh... yeah, lemmy has like 20+ client apps ... so... lol

I'm not sure exactly which space characters are supposed to be used on 4Chan, but doing it here I tried two spaces and it was too far left, then three and it was too far right. I ended up with two regular non-breaking spaces and one thin non-breaking space, and that's as good as I can get it.

It looks almost right for me, on both the default web UI/Firefox/Linux and Voyager/Android.

>greentext in plain colour

It doesn't feel as satisfying. But yes, it's an option.

[-] LaLuzDelSol@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I feel like it should be possible

[-] lvxferre@mander.xyz 8 points 1 month ago

It should, but I don't expect either Lemmy or PieFed to implement it. Because, like, the original role of greentext was quoting, and we already have quote blocks.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
