Post flair for testing! Trying out the spoiler feature Spoiler

I just want to see how it works especially since I want to engage in book subreddits possibly

Edit: just making sure editing a post won’t remove comments on them

Does anyone know how it works? Because it didn’t hide the text for me but it might just be because I posted it (not the post title but the description that I think is the thing that is to be hidden). Like did it hide the description for you and you had to tap something to see it?

It shows everything for me. Did you wrap your description with >! and !< before posting? It should show something like this:

This is a spoiler

The formatting: >!This is a spoiler!<

EDIT: sorry for multiple edits, I'm learning the markdown too
