Weird! I'm using the stock Masto web UI in Vivaldi Android, and it shows as it's meant to, with the numbers sub & super scripted.
I C&Ped it into the Notes app, and it still looks right, until I add a space between the numbers and slash, then the digits revert to normal.

@silvermoon82 @millihertz @gbrnt y'all I'm fairly sure this is a font thing, i.e. whether it works doesn't really depend on the interface per se.
most importantly I'm extremely sure this isn't any kind of markup being generated by Mastodon or the client

@anselmschueler @silvermoon82 @gbrnt that's the conclusion i came to also. also there's no rhyme or reason to which fonts will render correctly. eg Roboto does, but Roboto Mono doesn't!

makkin thing

@anselmschueler yeah I just thought it might be another on the list of things that the mastodon web interface strips out!

@millihertz weird, for me in firefox on android it doesn't display properly even on the original instance ieji.de/@anselmschueler/114556

Maybe different fonts are getting used?

@gbrnt maybe - i checked on ff/android, and you're right, it doesn't show it properly there.

maybe it is fonts? on the original page, the specified font-family is < "mastodon-server-sans-serif", sans-serif >, whereas i have my fonts nailed down to Atkinson Hyperlegible... but if i switch to Roboto in the Inpsector, suddenly it gets rendered! so yes, it does appear to be a font thing!
