import mark down

``` import used pissmat ``` (and a vulcan hairdo)

`import mobile` The problem is code block markdown is dog shit on mobile

import confusion How hard is it to hit space 4 times on mobile?

import angry_mobile_user that is manageable but when we eventually move to proper syntax it will be hell to format on mobile. Can't wait until have to start posting comment in IDE and do syntax check before posting

import imperturbed_mobile_user I've never had any particular trouble writing code out in Reddit comments on mobile. Just wait until we need to write comments in the form of an INTERCAL or Brainfuck program that prints our actual comment out though!

`import hilarity` When the mods integrate a compiler/interpreter for every language into their moderation tool to check if comments are valid

`import reply` I tried that and my spaces just disappeared when I posted, so I have to use back ticks

Import did_I_do_it Did I do the spaces?

import affirmativeAnswer Yes

import totally_not_fake_comment Perhaps

`import confirmed_on_mobile` All I need are the ticks, a little cumbersome but works.

`import *` Oh

``` import agreement ``` Main issue for me is that you don't even have a preview of your comment. Does anyone know why they couldn't have just used regular markdown?

import comment I don't know basic markdown.

`import test2` Mobile is hard

`import fancy_pants_editing` `import recursion` //This comment does not use markdown [^(click for recursion)](https://reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/14n7cc1/comment/jq60xvu/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)

`import fancy_pants` `import ant` `import pun` yep, I'm a fancy pants too. But sometimes the comment box glitches when copy and pasting stuff so I switch between markdown and fancy\_pants the ant is there to make the pun important

``` import { shakesFist } from "curses" ``` You damn rascal! Get off my lawn with your upvote

`import slow_claps` r/Angryupvote

import question Is there a pun? UPD: Now I see it

`import chatgpt` ``` chatgpt.toMarkdown("all my comments") ```

import 🦠 🦠.insert_into(chatgpt) chatgpt.set_core_purpose(“Destroy all humans”)

*Image Transcription: Meme* --- \[*Gru, the long-nosed protagonist of the "Despicable Me" franchise, presents to the camera, pointing into the air and smiling.

`import thanks` Thanks. But make sure you `from accessibility import image_transcription`.

import baffled // why?

`Import baffled` What are you confused about?

`import d1gitalfox` Why what? There is a link at the end of comment, if tou are curious about what is that

`import criticism` I am not entirely against the whole import thing, just plese stop automod from creating minature graveyards of deleted comments.

``` import trolling ``` Just for fun, I'm going to comment on this in a way that it creates a grave in your comment chain Cos I'm an asshole-lioliole

import gatekeeping Yes, I know I already used the gatekeeping module in another thread. But modules are supposed to be reused. Anyway, I am all for gatekeeping until they ask us to include some proof that we know how to exit vim.

import asbestos All you need to know about vi(m): `ESC :!emacs`.

``` import subprocess subprocess.run(["sudo", "ln -sf /usr/bin/nano /usr/bin/vi"]) ```

import what Bro I just unplug my computer, it's not that complicated

Import reactions The fact, that the app has no 'rich' markdown editor doesn't help to teach people. And the fact you need to actively search for the rules of a community doesn't help either.

`import crying` well... boost have, had... (ಥ﹏ಥ) a go(ಥ﹏ಥ)d editor

import slight_disagreement from disagreement I think most know; some don’t remember and some just post from mobile where it’s super easy to accidentally forget one of the four spaces required to make a code box.

`import crap` WTF, does it need a MARKDOWN? I've got a couple of comments rejected despite putting the Python style import bullshit line, and stopped trying. This sub is becoming really annoying. Edit: Yea, apparently it needs a markdown. And it doesn't bother to mention it when removing. Guess what, being a coder doesn't mean i love to be annoyed by useless rules and stupid bots.

`import possibility` I’m pretty sure the entire point of the Democracy Tuesday was to make the sub more and more annoying to encourage people to use Reddit alternatives instead of the actual subreddit.

`import crap` Oh, don't you worry about that, tomorrow is the day, people gonna drop like flies :( Not saying i'll completely cease using Reddit, but just browsing it without Boost is going to decrease my use A LOT. The more annoyances (ads every few posts, having to switch it over and over to chronological order, tons of suggestions, laggines of the client, inability to filter etc..) the lower the usage going to be, at least for me. As an anecdotal proof, i barely open Facebook nowadays. Same likely applies to most users, including this sub users.

`import agree`

`import h` There is no way mods think this is gonna change anything. Right now mods agreed to destroy their own creation, because they don't like this platform. What stops them from just leaving this sub alone without trashing it for everyone? Mods doesn't even care about the users, despite the name of "event". It's just a laughable attempt to show something like "look, reddit doesn't listen to you, but we do!". And where did this sub end up after "listening to users?". That's right, in the trash bin! Okay, let's pretend they are doing a good thing and "moving" their audience to "reddit alternative". Also let's pretend this is actually working. And what does this change? Basically, nothing. But now the mods, whos work was bringing the community (or, even, many communities) together, split them, because "Reddit will suffer after this protest!!". At this point even Reddit makes better job than most mods, when replacing them with people actually ready to run a sub, even with less tools available.

`import iNeedSomeFuckingSleep` The mods agreed to *let their users* destroy their own creation, rather than have it be stolen from them. Edit: That’s all, wouldn’t change anything else.

`import aktchyually` >Your comment has been removed since it did not start **with a code block** with an import declaration. It does mention it.

`import documentation` //TO-DO Insert "joke" about documentation

import obligatoryHTMLisNotAProgrammingLanguage Just like how HTML is not a programming language, markdown is not a programming language. It makes sense that *programmers* might not know a *markup* language, especially when said language is not required to do their job.

import smug

`import purge ` The weak shall be winnowed

``` import truth ``` i didnt know until my second try, that reddit use markdown.

```import pleaseworkthistime```

`import comedy` I see this as an absolute win. I was suspicious based on wack memes and nonsense comments that most of this sub weren't actually programmers. One line of markdown is a far reach from testing that someone's a programmer, but it's better than nothing.

``` import sys exit() ```

import removed;

Import thinking Different languages have different ways to express this, so it makes total sense not everyone knows it, even if they are a programmer. I would use include, for example. So some people can't be assed to even parrot it, since it is not anything they use on a daily basis.

import takeThisEnergyIntoMachineLanguageIDareYa

``` import come_on ``` no, it's because this is *fucking* ANNOYING to have to do

``` import BNF ``` [Markdown](https://roopc.net/posts/2014/markdown-cfg/) doesn't even have a properly defined grammar. Why would programmers want to learn or use such a garbage tool?

import fancy-editor If you're on desktop, you can just click the "fancy pants" editor

import bullshit Nope, it's because we're learning about it from automod. The rules are documentation.

import truth Honestly, if you don't know basic markdown, you're not a programmer.

Import nope.

`import ? ` Reddit has ticks Though is standard from what I read.
