Code blocks are wrapped

[matthiasbeyer]

Describe the bug

Codeblocks introduced with the three backticks are wrapped, causing them to be unusable for ascii-art.
Example: https://beyermatthias.de/butido-a-linux-package-building-tool-in-rust

(make sure to narrow down your browser window)

Steps to reproduce (if necessary)

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Have a ``` codeblock
2. Make the screen small
3. See the wrapped code

Expected behavior

Codeblocks should, if the screen is too narrow, be scrollable.

Application configuration

• Single mode
• sqlite
• Open registration? no
• Federation enabled? yes

Can someone please confirm this bug?

Sorry for the delay on this, @matthiasbeyer -- thanks for the report. I confirmed the same thing is happening for me. I think it's just a question of what's the best solution here.

In general, we're very hesitant to change default layout behavior unless there's a clear desire from most people to see it changed. So I think we'll need to hear from other users on this. Should code blocks automatically wrap, as they do today? Or should they be scrollable?

Otherwise, for now, there's a quick workaround for this with custom CSS you can add to your blog:

pre {
    overflow-x: auto;
}
pre code {
    white-space: pre !important;
}
