It looks like LaTeX works if you don't use exponents...

\( a \le b \)

... but not if you do use exponents:

\(a \le b^c \)

@peterdrake I find it hit and miss on my browser. And the one with the exponent rendered, the other didn't. ;) Now both.. uh.. well, it changes constantly. Might hit up @freemo to check if this thing works nicely. :P

I would love it if it was to work on the mobile app...
Unfortunately it's quite a useless feature to me since I rarely use the webpage

This has to do with the Content Security Policy interfering with self-hosted scripts. There are good reasons for doing this - in particular, some types of files users upload, like SVG images, can contain arbitrary JavaScript. I think the MathJax code just needs to be added to whatever whitelist exists for necessary scripts, but I'm not sure how to do that (and it's probably @freemo who has to make the change anyway).

I tested this by disabling CSP in my browser (Waterfox preferences security.csp.*) temporarily - but I do not recommend this as a permanent workaround for reasons outlined above.

@khird

I am currently working on trying to get a new version out that fixes this. Also trying to find someone I might be able to hire to work on the QOTO code base part time.

@peterdrake Weirdly enough, it renders for me but says [Math Processing Error] first, then it got really B I G, but still renders it correctly in s m o l font. Does anyone else see this funky behavior? 😂
