I think the problem here is that (i.e: <foo>) is being treated as HTML, which the browser renders as nothing, because that’s not even a valid element it understands how to render. Hmmm 🤔

Ahh no I was wrong. this is being stripped at the Markdown parsing level due to “unsafe” HTML. Which of course is a bit hard to tell between what is safe and unsafe HTML.

Okay I’m fixing this in lextwt, yarnd and twtxt.app (takes a different path). Soon you’ll be able to write shit™ like (<this>) and it’ll get escaped and rendered correctly on the page.
