Feature request: single line breaks (yiffit.net)

Jerboa currently ignores single line breaks. I think single line breaks should be implemented as the only other alternative is double line breaks which are not always appropriate.

I wasn't talking about markdown language. I was talking about the end user experience. In my email client for example, I can write a single line break and it is formatted as such. The end user shouldn't have to know/worry/care about the underlying technology; the technology should work to meet their needs.

Yeah, let's embed a MS Word window in the interface instead of the text box, for a full wysiwyg user friendly experience. It could check the user's environment and log in to Office365 using their credentials, thus having access to their templates and onedrive too.

Hey, hey, what about... Teams integration? That would be super user friendly. We could read, comment and post directly from our cosy familiar Microsoft friendliness, never ever needing to know, worry or care about any underlying technology.

But wait! I clearly remember having to know, worry and care about how to use wysiwyg editors. Can't we instead go back to using raw latex tags and vi as the post/comment interface?

Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.
