News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Does not look like your Lemmy editor is converting them, but Lemmy's frontend itself, because on mbin I just see two regular dashes. Kind of a weird implementation.
That's probably because the posts are stored as plain text, and any markdown within them is just rendered at display time. This is presumably also how you can view any post or comment's original source. So, here you go:
Double --
En – (alt 0150)
Em — (alt 0151)
And for good measure, a triple:
Actually, I notice if you include a triple that's not on a line by itself it does render it as an em dash rather than en, like so: ---
You're right, it means you don't have to save two versions or somehow convert it back into a source format instead. The triple renders as a line below on mbin. I don't remember what they're called.
That's a horizontal rule.
Refreshingly, the frontend just converts it to a plain old HTML tag and doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, either.
