Rich text support

This is from BF docs:

Mastodon preserves HTML links and line breaks, but removes all other formatting and tags. Other fediverse sites vary in their HTML handling.

Since v4.2, Mastodon supports some additional tags (https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/activitypub/#sanitization), so I tried to include <pre> tag inside h-entry, but it seems to be stripped out by BF. Do I need to do something else to include this?

Thanks for the nudge! That section of the BF docs should indeed be updated.

I haven't tested interop with Mastodon 4.2's formatting support much yet, but BF is definitely preserving your HTML content. Here's the activity it sent for one of your test posts that included <pre>:

Ah, okay, so it's definitely something on Mastodon's side... Maybe I need to include something else, because I've seen posts from other instances with these tags in my feed, but it was removed from this one for some reason.
