    Do code-blocks work better than on reddit for mobile?

    Fenced code block:

    module Main where
    
    main :: IO ()
    main = do
        putStrLn "Hello, kbin!"
    
    

    Indented 4 spaces:

    module Main where
    
    main :: IO ()
    main = do
        putStrLn "Hello, kbin!"
    
    

    update: Oh wow, looks like only inline code fragements work? Something like main = putStrLn "Hello, kbin!"
    update 2: No syntax highlighting at all! That’s probably a show-stopper.

      AFAIK Reddit also doesn’t have syntax highlighting, or does it? The blocks and inline code in your comment does render in a monospace font, so that’s a good first step. I also believe kbin is still very new and might get more features like syntax highlighting in the future.

        You’re right! I think the difference is that reddit puts a background around code so it stand out from “regular” text.
