    with the shrug emoticon you have to use 3

    the underscore is used for text formatting so you have to escape it and the back slash

    2 ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

    3 ¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

      Oh dear. In my client, Connect, the 2 slash version looks right and the 3 slash version has a doubled arm. I suspect it’s not rendering markdown correctly.

      Lemme try:

      ¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

      ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Okay idk how to describe this, but those two text strings above are seemingly identical in plain text, but one renders correctly, the other incorrectly in my client. I feel like I’m being gaslit.

        Liftoff here, 2 is the right number… except in some comments where 3 works too unless it doesn’t 🤷

        2 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - OK (second italics escaped)

        2 ¯\(ツ)/¯ - unescaped ITALICS

        32 20 c2 af [5c 5c] 5f 28 e3 83 84 29 5f 2f c2 af 0a

        3 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - OK (first italics escaped)

        33 20 c2 af [5c 5c] [5c 5f] 28 e3 83 84 29 5f 2f c2 af 0a

        3 ¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ - doubled

          Ah, so there’s a non-printing character in there. It’s weird that the person making a demo to explain it made that mistake.
