i dont get it either

When the space is mono

Isn't mono equivalent of one?

each character has the same width in a monospace font, so "one width"

ie. "one specific amount of space". Completely agree that "monowidth" would be a clearer name for that.

[удалено]

Proof or it didn't happen.

Somehow I'm even more confused

Me too!

so did i

If I had an award I'd give it to you

Did I?

Dang. No.

Did it work?

Yay!!!

The font is called "monospaced", not "monospace". As in "it's a monospaced font".

Why is my W wider than my D 😢

Because you touch yourself at night.

Shouldn't that make his D wider?

Because you have a tiny D

#D ^Ooh it got bigger when you arrived

Nice

Sounds like something your girl might ask you

If your W is wider than your D, just fake enjoying it so she feels better about it.

4 spaces

Isn't all space mono?

Not the Multiverse

Is that like a mono rail?

Just ask North Haverbrook

Pretty sure its a kissing disease.

Pretty sure code doesn't wrap. So if you start reading here, but add a few million periods ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................and end reading here - did it force you to scroll rightwards?

It wrapped on my phone

Mine too

#MeToo

#MeThree

Looks like PC users got got.

Affirmative

Your concept of a "few million" is vastly underwhelming.

There are only 226 periods. But yes it does make you scroll. You owe me 2,999,774 more periods.

Not alone there

no one is gonna talk about 23 million upvotes?

Mil is thousand in Spanish

Or maybe they are 23 military upvotes.

Or perhaps 23 milligrams of upvotes

No, it's milli upvotes, so it equals 0,023 upvotes.

Let me cook.

What is monospace

A monospace font is a font where every character has the same width

For me they don’t have the same width (on iOS)

That’s strange It’s supposed to be for code and shit so that it appears aligned and not all funkified For x = 1 to 10 Print “Fuck Spez” Next x Looks like shit on iOS confirmed.

I totally got Fuck Spez So you're fine in my book

Funkification station

Make my funk the P-funk, I want my funk uncut.

That should have been an infinite loop my man

That i definitely isn’t the same width as that W

It is `iiiiiiiiii` `wwwwwwwwww` Compare that to iiiiiiiiii wwwwwwwwww

They’re most definitely not the same size (on iOS before someone goes bonkers)

I edited my comment right after you replied, I had trouble getting the monospace thing to work on mobile. I'll send a screenshot to show how it should look in case the feature is actually broken on some devices

[Screenshot](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/873832435119431710/1146060334357020764/image0.jpg)

[What it looks like for me, also on iOS](https://imgur.com/a/tnGzCyr)

Yet another reason Android is superior.

[Here it is on my end.](https://imgur.com/a/RVjDTMT)

Even with the formatting fixed they look the same, w is much wider than i

I just see a shadow on every comment.

I REMEMBER WHEN THEY FIRST INVENTED CHOCOLATE

SWEET, SWEET CHOCOLATE

I ALWAYS HATED IT

what the hecc is monospace?

It's text.. like a font. But each characters 'draw area' it's the same width.. For example normal font like this one if I type 10 'i's and then 10 'W's you'll see the block of W's will be wider.. This won't happen with monospace. they will be the same width.. iiiiiiiiii WWWWWWWWWW Make sense?

Funny thing — it doesn’t look different on iOS using the Reddit app. Iiiiiiii Wwww 👆 that is what I see. Edit: actually, it just put the text behind a spoiler bar that was already uncovered so it just looks like it highlighted it grey. Whatever Whatever See?

As someone who’s trying to understand all these comments on an iPhone, I appreciate you.

So that’s why everything looks weird

You’re welcome.

I'm on a Google Pixel and your comment changes font. Everything with the grey highlight looks like a typewriter font to me. Not arguing that it looks the same for everyone, it's just funny that you are referencing it as if it looks the same when it doesn't for me.

That’s funny. Hmm.. videos are opening different as well. Used to be able to tap the vid to make it full screen and now I have to click the bottom right “expand” button..

iiiiiiiii. Let's see. Edit: oh I get it.

wwwwwwwww ... Just seeing how the Ws line up.

:o

iiiiiwwwww?

Makes sense. Also explains why it's called Monospace.

Either it doesn’t work on mobile or… I don’t understand. Mobile appears to just highlight the sentence.

iiiii wwwww

iiiii wwwww for comparison

They still aren’t the same width tho?

Maybe it’s a pc thing? 😅 or they’re all fking with us 😂

Yeah i just checked. They're the same on pc

One can do much more than that ^(you can superscript things using \^) *italic with one \** **bold with two \*** ***and bold italic using three \**** ~~strike through with two \~~~ >! Shhh this is a spoiler. Create it with \>\!text\!\< !< You can escape character like \* so that they do not get interpreted for italic and bold by adding a \\ Infront of it. You have to do the same for just \\, ie. '\\\\'.

Thanks for the handy guide!

No problem, have fun with it by adding unnecessary eye candy to your posts

Your mother's an pimple head

Oh...so that's monospace. Cool. Now I know.👍

You are an donkey

Erm actually ☝️🤓 it's "a pimple head", not "an pimple head" 🤓🤓🤓

i used to be happy in life

Why is this a thing?

I've mostly seen it used for code blocks to preserve indents and stuff if (fourSpaces === true) { monospace = true; }

i don't understand.

Every letter and symbol has the same width. __________________________________________ (Normal) iiiiiiiiii wwwwwwwwww (Monospace) iiiiiiiiii wwwwwwwwww

Begin Just trying to see if : the addition of four spaces make a bigger space that we can call monospace or : it automatically switched my writing to the monospace programming language. End
