Comment on Media Bias Bot's comments don't display correctly in Sync

This is sadly some issue where Apps dont have Markdown feature sync with the Website.We will
I think it’s a great addition, but it sure does eat up a lot of space. Any way it can be condensed to the absolute basic information?
This is what it looks like for me on Boost: Sample of the bot comments
I get that it’s a mark down problem with the app, but perhaps it can still be condensed?
Sry this is a app issue. For now block it until the app developer syncs up the markdown to match lemmys
Yeah, I’m gonna mention again in the app community, but this doesn’t seem high priority. It’s been mentioned many times before and affects all kinds of areas where spoiler tags are used. 🫤
Yeah we are sorry for the inconvinience.
Thanks, I’ll block it for now. Hopefully won’t miss a post saying it’s all good now 😅.
I will ask the lemmy sync to implement the spoilers.

The bot’s info is nice and I appreciate your effort. The wall of text is a turnoff for humans in-general, as we are lazy skimmers. So the text being formatted so densely trains users to automatically ignore it, thus reducing the bot’s intended purpose - to supply users with extra info about media bias. (which we desperately need on sites like lemmy)
If there’s any possibility of reformatting so your intentions can more broadly affect the those platform, then I think your goals would be more effectively achieved.
Again, thank you for the bot.

If you have a better format we will gladly accept it. But for every other non App UI it works perfectly as the spoiler hides everything away into few lines.

It’s formatted properly with Lemmy markdown. This is on the Sync developers to handle a very common feature in Lemmy properly.
