    That's some serious coding you did there. Nice

    Nice. I like the fresh design ideas!
    The lack of icons isn’t as weird as I thought it would be.

    How does the code highlighter work? Does it recognize code and only highlights those parts which are code?

    I also had the idea for code highlighting but I imagined that it would need to look for markers like ``` or {code}.

    @Lensflare thx! it doesnt recognize the code. its actually very basic haha.

    at the moment it colors every "{" etc.. and if // or ## at start it comments the line...

    it would be cool if we could make the code markers same in every client and then actually recommend using them when composing a rant.

    @joewilliams007 yes indeed! I think the most common is

    ```
    this = code;
    ```

    It works on github and MS Teams, for example.
