Spoiler formatted wrong. You need the thing after spoiler to be what the tag says (Spoiler, for example). Then the inside goes one line down.

For example

::: Spoiler description_for_spoiler_text

The content of the spoiler
:::

Unfortunately Boost for Lemmy doesn't handle spoiler text so I always see the plaintext anyway

Oops, I did yesterdays earlier since it was right around midnight

Somehow even with your hint, I didn't get purple till the end lol

I forget, what was the purple? (It's already Sunday here so I can't see it anymore.)

I thought there was an archive of past puzzles on the site but I didn't see it. I did find this unofficial version

It looks like they actually added an official archive of past puzzles today!

Nice!

I choose to believe it's because we asked for it 😊

::: spoiler Spoiler I learned another meaning of stole today. Ugh they are so tricky. :::

Zagorath@aussie.zone · 1 pts · 1y

I mainly know that definition because it's related constantly in Wheel of Time.

I had the same issue, but managed to get it perfect out of luck!
