The docs for `libfloof` state:
> The floof is 4 bytes long, at most.
And when I type `code` with backticks at the start of a line, the word 'code' is formatted as code as expected, but auto-correct automatically capitalises it to 'Code' — which should never be done with code fragments.
So this is basically just headings, italics, bold, and links?
It's really annoying when you need to share technical documentation with lots of code and code-like content with people and they've started doing the spec in Google Drive. Just give me working Markdown.
To add a code block, type @ and scroll down to "Code Block <>". It's still very limited, with syntax highlighting limited to C/C++, Java, JavaSript, Python.
Is that available only in certain paid versions of Google Workspace, or has it not rolled out to everyone?
When I type @ there's no code block option. I get People, Smart Chips, and then in "Building Blocks" I get five items from "Meeting Notes" to "Project Assets". If I click the arrow to expand to the full list of building blocks, it only adds a sixth item "Launch Content Tracker" and the rest is blank space.
What would ``` add that you can't already do with two indents?
Beyond that, I think support for ```sh type highlighting would be awful, one of the best things about HN is how clean it is, I'd hate to see syntax highlighting or pictures or whatever when scrolling.

It would let me add those fences before and after the code I’m pasting instead of having to go and add spaces in front of every pasted line. On mobile adding the spaces after pasting is a bit fiddly. Then again, maybe it is a feature because it discourages pasting too many lines of code in many cases.
This is supported, but it's probably not rolled out to you yet. And once it is rolled out, you need to turn it on yourself. See the blog the developer linked to in a comment.
Also when I close a single line code with `, the formatting stays as if I'm writing more code. It should reset to whatever formatting was before the opening `
