Also, it seems that the post you made yesterday didn't make to my instance. I need to find out if the issue is on which end is the issue.
Oh, I am sorry! That was me experimenting with Lemmy's SDK to see if I could create a post out of a reddit submission. My original idea was to use the output from readability, convert it to markdown and then save in the "body" field, but only after I ran it on some of posts I noticed that I was getting a byte stream instead of a string. This is why the body starts with \b and has all the \n.
I edited the body on my post, but it seems that the updated has propagated through the different instances?
