Discord

Discord is a proprietary chat app that often acts as a forum for software communities.

Spoiler Tags

Sometimes it’s useful to hide things in spoiler tags, Discord uses double pipes for this:

||something spoiler-like||

This can also be used on code blocks:If I put the spoiler tags (||) on their own line, it adds extra line breaks that aren’t needed, so putting them all on one line is probably what I want.

||```gleam
pub fn main() {
  io.println("Hello from Gleam!")
}
```||

Editing a Thread Title

As the creator of a thread, you can edit the title. I found this by right clicking on the thread-name in the left sidebar. From the pop-up menu:

Edit Thread -> Thread Name

After changing the title, click “Save Changes”, Which appeared in Green at the bottom of the page for me.

Pop-up menu:
