Just FYI. The proofread breaks quotes. This has that way a while now.

Doesn’t really break the quote, only the preview visualization.

I’d say this, plus the the animated diff we have on the roadmap, means we should move to doing a diff without the cooking part of it.

What do y’all think @awesomerobot @keegan ?

Just to add to this…

We recently updated Discourse, and from what I recall, the plugin wouldn’t try to proofread quoted text (as it shouldn’t because technically it’s not really quoted anymore if it does).

Below is a screenshot…

@keegan just rolled out a new implementation, the diff is now applied to markdown and streamed :heart_eyes:

It works great for this case and even handles fixing typos in quotes :slight_smile:
