Wanted to ask you about this article, how do you remember the early days of the internet (I was sadly too young at that time). Do you wish it back? And do you think it can ever be like that again? I would be very interested

      I assume it all works the same on mastodon, if it’s showing up ok, so:

      Bold is 2 asterisks on either side
      like ** this **

      Italics is either one asterisk for each like * this * or underscores _ like this _ (does this show up italicized for you?)

      • Strikethrough is ~~ two tildes ~~ and looks like this

      Obviously just remove the spaces in between the symbols and letters, because I can’t figure out yet how to stop markdown from working on here any other way, in order to depict it precisely
