“They may be called the Palace Guard, the City Guard, or the Patrol. Whatever the name, their purpose in any work of heroic fantasy is identical: it is, round about Chapter Three (or ten minutes into the film) to rush into the room, attack the hero one at a time, and be slaughtered. No one ever asks them if they want to. This book is dedicated to those fine men.” ― Terry Pratchett, Guards! Guards!

The formatting shows different depending on what app/style/extensions are being used.
On my screen, the "." Shows as a link, with the rest of it as a note underneath with the link preview.
On a different app, it doesn't show anything but the entire thing, not as a link.
But I use a text expansion to insert the entirety, which goes back to the Clacks overhead. In markdown, it normally shows as , depending on exactly what markdown a given site uses.
I should probably set up a lemmy specific version that's GNU TerryPratchett, but it just seems weird to change the standard format for it considering why it came into being in the first place.
