RE: 7 Powerful Formatting Hacks For Your Next Hive Post

in OCD4 years ago

I haven't tried to use my colon to improve my post. Usually I've tried to use my fingers and my brain. Next time I'll know better!

These are great tips. The one thing I'd like to know, the fancy fonts created by generators might seem good, but not only they are less readable, they might mess up text-reading software. At least on Twitter I've seen discussion about such tricks and how they sound terrible to anyone who's using software to read texts.

I'm not saying they shouldn't be used, but it's good to spot the possible risks and see if it's actually necessary to use them.

YES. Hence never overdo it. I am so glad you made this point.
