Uhhmmmm... "sold for 00"? What part of the software in between this headline and my browser is parsing $5 (which clearly has no value at that moment), and why is it working on input it isn't intended to? What variables would exist and be interpolated into the title if they were to happen in a post title? Is this a known issue? An issue with the bot? An issue with Lemmy?

Do people get messages when you @ them? @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] I don't want to report this post - it's a fine post - but I do want infosec.pub to be safe and secure.

I will take a closer look, but I strongly suspect this is the result of overly aggressive filtering to avoid xss

Oh, like refusing to parse $5. That would be good. Thanks for looking!

Will have to look in the logs. Probably the pushing to Lemmy part.
