Your spoiler syntax isn't going to work here for a few reasons.

First and foremost, you're using the Reddit spoiler syntax. That does not work on Lemmy. Lemmy spoilers are done with:

[visible spoiler explanatory text][hidden text]

But the second is that you've put your spoiler text inside the code block. Because you put three backticks, but they need to be on their own line to register in the syntax as ending a code block. Otherwise it displays like this:

I think I thought myself out of this one today, but I see now I must include the word spoiler. I'm having to type the syntax out manually because I'm still using Sync, which I believe has been abandoned by the developer.

I had a look and apparently @[email protected] has been known to do a bunch of work before disappearing for quite a while, so hopefully he can get around to fixing its spoiler (and superscript and subscript) syntax before too long, if people report it. Not sure how he wants people reporting issues. Maybe just on [email protected]? Or maybe there's a way through the app itself?

I'm not really sure where they've done that in today's puzzle, tbh.

Spoilers

Where have they abstracted nouns into verbs?
