`!list` command output is not rendered correctly on Discord for Android

Open anoadragon453 opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

The output of the !list command makes use of markdown in its rendering. On desktop/web and iOS platforms, this markdown is rendered correctly. On Discord Android however, markdown does not look to be rendered, and output looks like the following:

whereas it should look more akin to:

@Cephian has reported the bug to Discord. There's not much we can do on our side unless we modify the output of the command to no longer require markdown.

Unfortunately, looking around, this bug looks to have been known as early as 2019.

@Cephian what do you think about picking a colour for the embed? Mostly just for helping the message stand out even more. For instance, if using red:

One just needs to set the discord.Embed.colour attribute (interestingly spelled using British English).

I don't have much of a preference for a specific colour.

Edit: Oops, meant to start this discussion on #2. Ah well.

A color is a good idea! I propose dd2e44, the color of the hearts in the flaming heart emoji. The "Now Playing" color is included for reference

This is fixed now that Discord has replaced their Android app with a new UI based on React Native.
