As far as I know, Photon also supports markdown in comments. Lemmy World runs that as an alternate frontend at https://photon.lemmy.world/
Unless something changed, it has good PWA support.

Voyager and Memmy have markdown shortcuts in the comment editor.
AFAIK, most if not all iOS support markdown even though some may not have shortcuts in the comment editor; you would have to type them manually.

first of all, i've never seen any, not even Apollo for Reddit, that did live styling. The preferred method has always been to show the markup in the editor so the user can modify it before posting or easily edit it afterwards.
second: what markup shortcuts are you wanting there to be? existing, end even past editors, typically only ever feature the most commonly-used markup in shortcuts simply due to space limitations in the interface. if you're looking for shortcuts for things like tables and other advanced formatting, i doubt you'll find that anywhere just because it's uncommonly used and other shortcut bottoms would take UI/UX priority.
stuff like that didn't even get added to Apollo until its final versions, and, AFAIK it was the only Reddit app that had them. In your case, you'll probably have to just learn to type it in manually like the rest of us.

Say the person clearly trying to pick a fight…

I didn’t argue with anyone in my comment, and you’ve already had a comment removed by the mods for your rule breaking behavior.
Perhaps you should take a break.

You called ME a “jerk”, and I know what we said because
- I remember and
- It’s in the mod log
So, now you’re lying about what you said while proudly admitting to childish name-calling… all while accusing me of being the one causing problems here?
K…

Congratulations. You called me a dick, and you got your comment removed, so now you’re just trolling me instead of moving on like an adult.

You’re the only one who’s been aggressive, call people, names, and has been arguing and fighting. So much so, that you’ve already had one comment removed and most of your comments here have been downloaded into the negative. Clearly nobody agrees with you.
You’re projecting your anger and your actions onto me, and it’s clear that you need to step away and take a break.
>Clearly nobody agrees with you.
bandwagon fallacy
Oh, look. An alt
Oh, look. An alt account for @tsonfeir@lemm.ee
again, this is easily disprovable. you are paranoid
Go on then and prove it, alt account for @tsonfeir@lemm.ee
first, i don't use capitalization, my account is years older, we talk about (almost) entirely disparate topics, and we have conflicting political views. you'd never catch me saying this:
"The GOP intends to coup. "
and my posting history will back that up.
A person can vary how they speak online. Your “evidence” is hardly “proof”, lol
Oh, look. An alt account for @tsonfeir@lemm.ee
again, this is easily disprovable. you are paranoid
Yet you can’t seem to provide a shred of evidence to the contrary, despite your claims…

Cross-community stalking is against instance rules. I’ll be reporting you to each community mod and to the instance mods.
I warned you to take a break. …

Clearly, you can’t even control yourself

appeal to authority
Oh, look. An alt account for @tsonfeir@lemm.ee
that's a lie easily disprovable. you're paranoid.

A person can change how they speak online (code switching). Especially if they’re trying to hide that they’re using an alt. Your “evidence” is hardly “proof”, lol.

!arctic@lemmy.world has good markdown support and if it’s missing anything the developer is pretty good at making sure the next update supports it.
This is probably the one for me, really digging the level of customization and it’s easy to navigate.
Thanks everyone for the comments so far, I’m including 3 screenshots of how a post looks in all 3 locations (Memmy, Photon & Arctic)
I think Arctic is the winner for me, I like the layout and settings. Also Memmy removed the swipe from left to access subscribed communities and it’s been impossible to get out of the habit, Arctic seems to do it!
