What's the worst spoiler that you've inadvertently given to someone? (Please use spoiler tags.) (lemmy.sdf.org)

When I was in college, my then girlfriend texted me that she was watching Jojo Rabbit. She knew it was one of my favorite movies, and said that she loved it too. She was talking about how Scarlett Johannson's shoes almost have their own personality. So I said,

spoiler

yeah, it's devastating when you notice her shoes on the hanging body.

Turns out she had paused the movie to make some dinner, and hadn't seen this part yet. Needless to say, she was PISSED!

I guess this is a good a time as any to ask how spoiler tags work on Lemmy.

Also, do spoiler tags also work in Kbin? Because all the text in this thread is completely visible to me and I'm not sure if it's supposed to be.

Apparently like this:

Bible SpoilerJesus dies in the Bible!

To appear like this:

Bible Spoiler

Jesus dies in the Bible!

Line breaks are a must. It seems like some apps like Voyager doesn't support spoiler tags so you may need to look again in the browser if this doesn't look right.

Yeah, Kbin definitely doesn't support this at all lol.

But thanks for the spoiler, I wasn't done reading that one!

It seems this doesn't work with Eternity (Infinity fork for Lemmy).

Let's test something real quick:

!Batman is Bruce Wayne!<

It seems that Eternity still thinks it's on Reddit, but only in the preview, the actual post doesn't hide this either...
