Seems like some poster names of embiggened posts are now “ and 1 more ” (with the HTML code being and 1 more ) and with the link to their account only on the avatar image but some posts are also still working fine :

And on the same page as the previous, a working one :

Am i the only one getting this?

In case, it should not be too hard to fix that as well on !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

UPDATE

!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! 1.4 should fix the issue.

Its an old bug, from before the “ embiggen to display names” era

Been like this for a while on mobile for large usernames

Yeah, this has been around quite a while. Kinja assumes usernames of not longer than a certain length, so if they get too long, it assumes there must be more than one, and replaces the ones that don’t fit with “and x more”, even when it’s just one name that doesn’t fit.

Thanks for the explanation, i did update Oppositelockator to fix it but it doesn’t  truncate the username length at the moment, will limit that in case it’s needed.
