View submission: [reddit change] New markdown interpreter!
This change is breaking one of my subreddit's spoiler tags. The problem seems to be the automatic linking to subreddits. We have been using code like:
[Spoiler](/s "your text")
It's the same format most of the other spoiler-tag-using subreddits now use. The /letter still works for the mouseover title, but one of my tags employs this format:
[Speculation](/? "your text")
And the /? is being parsed as not a link and the previously-safe info on my subreddits back pages is now uncovered.
Can the support for /? be added back, or can this auto-link feature be turned off? If not, is there any chance someone can assist me with a dB call to globally replace the pattern
](/? "
with
](/g "
in my subreddit's posts to fix all the threads that now don't work? :) Any help/info on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

It's getting caught as an "unsafe" link. I'll add `?` as a valid character and should be able to have that rolled out early next week.
