MarkDown - Heading formatted text not displaying properly

Heading Text not displaying as expected.

I have noticed that posts with H2 heading titles, created and displayed perfectly on a Glitch-Social instance, display without the Larger text expected for the title in Pleroma FE.

While it's possible that this is intentional, a fellow user suggested an issue be raised here, for discussion and in case this is not intended behaviour.

Example post : Marilyn. Always remembered.

Which display so in Pinafore client (logged at the source, a Glitch-Social instance, here using the Dark Greyscale theme) :

The same post as seen at my account at F.A.B., via web browser, Pleroma FE :

And also at F.A.B, but using the MastodonFE -- same problems :

Observed Problems :

• Heading2 title displayed as plain text; no size or Bolding enhancements.
• Blank line between Title and first line of post text is suppressed in Pleroma front ends as well.

Post as seen elsewhere :

It displays very well in Friendica.

Thank you for your attention and consideration.

the styling does indeed seem a bit wrong and should be changed, but in general we try to avoid allowing larger to minimize the spam potential

I would say we can allow maximum font size about 150% of base text size. We would need to account for that better in the long post detection algo tho.

Quote also doesn't seem to have a border and bad bottom margin

Thank you for considering this and for the comments. I would suggest that H1 is indeed too large for use in fediverse posts (I had a dialogue with a HT user who complained about it, and never used it again).

HJ mentioned something I hadn't noticed myself even -- the suppressed blank line after the Quoted block. True.

I made a couple of similarly formatted posts since opening the issue here, and used '.' single dots as place markers in a blank line, to force Pleroma to space the Title from the rest of the article body with a blank line as intended. For now, it worked, although it's kludgy.

Thank you!
