Ahhh I've hit 1800 points, if anybody likes any of my posts or comments, I'm coming for you, and I WILL change all your inverted commas for backticks.6

It's weird that devRant, being a developer-centric platform, doesn't support `preformatted text`.
I just want to put `code` in backticks and stupid code snippets in triple backticks.
I think it's high time we adopted markdown. Can someone please take this issue #27 up from 2017? It's 2020 FFS!

I'm incredibly ticked off by decision of using backticks ´ to define template strings on es6...
template strings are nice , but backticks are irritating ugly and unreadable3 -
Am I the only one missing ``` // some code ``` backticks/tags (the ones that convert wrapped text to monospace code) here? @trogus -- Since this is a dev-oriented community.. could this be an area to improve devRant?2

TIL the ` character is known as the 'grave' character
meanwhile my 🤡 ass has been calling it 'back tick' this whole time...

Coding on a German keyboard suddenly gives you a reason to like those indentation-based languages without curly braces. And what about backticks and single quotes, they're for sure easier to find on an American ASCII keyboard. Fücking ümläüt chäräctersß!
Even worse on a Mac where it's not even printed on the keys what they do when holding shift, alt, or apple/clover/cringle keys.24 -
I don’t know about you but I use backticks for every string in js. I want to know that I can always use quotes and apostrophes and backticks ensure this. Also they allow templates and Babel got me covered when it comes to old browsers.
I don’t see the reason why should I use something but backticks in 2020
