if you’re viewing this in a terminal or something, this is what it is supposed to look like

a post with the fraction 9400723/205473, written with a slash, where the numerator is set smaller and higher, the denominator smaller and lower, and the slash is less vertical, than in normal text rendering

Thats totally weird. Is it a HTML-specific? (does not work in word or Notepad, for example, but here.

@anselmschueler Just checked, Safari doesn't do this on macOS either. But Chrome and Safari do! Even better, they're using the font's OpenType features, so the browser isn't doing faux sub/super figures but they come from the font.

Looks like Chrome and Firefox enable `frac` if they encounter the fractional slash, which is cool. Safari needs this turned on explicitly with CSS.
