Keyboard issue with No Man's Sky on Linux?

Has anyone playing on Linux tried to use the Text Formatting Guide?

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/qv6gy7/comprehensive_text_style_formatting_guide/

When I try to do it on Linux, every time I type < it gets replaced with >. So I can't do symbols or colors etc. I tested on my desktop Xubuntu (fails), steam deck (works fine using virtual keyboard), and windows 10 pc (works fine).

I am using a standard generic 105 key keyboard, the < key works elsewhere.

I am sorry if it sounded like I was derogating non-Lemmy users.

The followup comments are no issue, only the initial post. see here how it looks: https://lemmy.ml/post/3965415

So the only one who "needs to be" aware about Lemmy is the original poster. And if they follow a Lemmy community, they are usually aware of that.

Were you aware of that, @[email protected]?

And yes, I do also agree that the Lemmy devs need to fix integration into the rest of the fediverse. This software isn't exactly known for being very well thought out in the current state. You can raise an issue here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy

There already is an issue for the hashtags looking like arse, which is the main problem in this thread's title: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3828

@Helix @doug Thanks for the info, much appreciated. If I edit my initial post, will that fix the Lemmy thread or just create another?
