    Oh, wow. Thanks.

    For clarity, I wasn’t intending to say that PieFed treats that field as HTML (it treats it as text), I just meant that if you were looking at that JSON, and being a bit lazy like me and not looking at specs, then it wouldn’t be unreasonable to assume that the ‘mediaType’ field also refers to ‘name’ (rather than a ‘content’ field which this post doesn’t happen to have).

    Anyway, this seems to be even more reason why MD shouldn’t be put in titles, and front-ends shouldn’t be encouraging the practise by rendering it.

      Eh, I’ll probably use italics tho, just like I did * in reddit.
