If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred. As far as how long to wait until the post is no longer a spoiler, please just use your best judgement. Everyone has a different idea on this, so we don't want to make any hard limits.

    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

This completely slipped under my radar until the other day I was listening to a movie podcast and they were praising it. This was really good and original. It's a PG-13 horror, but that didn't matter at all. Not gory at all, but full of suspense and interesting scenes. Kaitlyn Denver puts in a strong performance, despite only having a couple lines. Actually, there's almost no dialogue in the entire movie, which is a little gimmicky, but didn't hurt the movie at all. It's basically about a woman who lives alone and her home gets invaded by aliens and she has to defend herself. There's a lot more going on but I don't want to give it away. I hope some of you have watched it and join the discussion. I found it very enjoyable.

Lol, I don't know what the point of asking how to do spoiler tags when you just used Reddit's version anyway, which doesn't work here.

That being said. I loved the tractor beams as well, especially the red one on the ceiling. Yeah, they don't really explain the parasites motivations, but it still worked for me.

I realized the lemmy app I'm using has a spoiler tag hotkey, seemed like it worked for me 🤷 does the > ! ! < like you said to do. Did it not work on your end? Maybe I'll let the dev know...

Yeah, the apps don't show up the same as the default Lemmy web version as far as I know.

does the > ! ! < like you said to do.

I didn't say to do this. I said:

type:

[spoilertext]
[spoiler goes here]

That is how Lemmy's markdown is done. You can see the formatting on this page. Looks like you're using Sync and yeah the spoiler hotkey is how Reddit did it. It works in the app but doesn't on Lemmy's website and probably some other apps.
