All you need to do is put 2 spaces before your code. I'm sure OP could have managed. Like this https://news.ycombinator.com/formatdoc https://news.ycombinat

- throwaway314155 2y agoI'm aware. Markdown is more popular and (in my opinion) easier to use. Tapping two spaces before each line of my code is a lot more effort than typing 3 backticks before and after the whole snippet. You're asking me to track indentation, on a potentially already indentation-based language (I mostly paste Python), without the help of an IDE. No thanks. Sure, they could have figured it out. But it's annoying.
- buibuibui 2y agoAh, I didn't knew about that. I assumed HN also used Markdown.
