A couple of things.
1. If you enable this and find a post that doesn't render correctly then **please file a bug that includes a link to the post and a screenshot**.
2. There's no UI for adding Markdown to the posts you create yet. That's coming, maybe in the next release, maybe not.
3. This only acts on the contents of posts. Content warnings, image captions, and account details are not converted. Not sure if they should be or not yet.
#Pachli 2.10.1 has been released. This fixes the issue that could cause Pachli to crash if you had ever signed in with multiple accounts, ensures "Show anyway" works on filtered posts in all timelines, and shows all available languages in Android's system settings.
Thanks to @tinsuke, @Russssty, @kallekn, @alkaf, Aindriú Mac Giolla Eoin, and @LukaszHorodecki.

Beginner friendly Tusky issues to fix
Here are some issues that should be doable in a few hours even without prior knowledge of the project, maybe even without Android dev knowledge. Let me know if you want to take one of them on, I'm glad to help!

Working on this on my days off this week. Does anyone from the #lineageos #android #androiddev community know if there's work being done for the #HMD Skyline?
As a developer, if I'm writing an open-source GUI app, Qt is an excellent choice, especially given how extremely cross-platform it is, and the QML-based (declarative GUI with embedded JavaScript) "Qt Quick" is similar to Android Jetpack Compose or Dart + Flutter or SwiftUI or .NET MAUI which I'm unsure if anyone actually uses yet.

Almost nine years ago I was futzing around with a tablet and managed to get it connected to my Windows PC over USB. I didn't see this particular technique properly documented anywhere, so I made a little blog post.
Today I got a nice thank-you comment. Good to know that this tip is still useful!
