1. How To Strike Out Words In Discord

Discord supports Markdown and uses highlight.js to highlight code-blocks. Some programming languages have specific color outputs from highlight.js and can be used to mimic colored output. Some programming languages have specific color outputs from highlight.js and can be used to mimic colored output. Does Markdown have a way to express strikeout? Ask Question 108. Several comments pointed out that using strikethrough in comments is possible. Not handy, since isn't supported yet, but actually possible (using unicode characters). Is there a way to strike out text in comments?

Using HTML tags is supposed to work with GitHub Markdown but, in particular, <s>text</s> is not working for me. It used to work on the now deprecated live preview page, but not on preview of README.md file. It works on wikis. I didn't find any special syntax for strikethrough on the Markdown: Syntax page.

Is it not possible?

I just used the following syntax

<del> .. </del>

successfully on GitHub in an issue description.

I know this is an old question, but I don't see a very detailed answer of the possibilities to strikethrough your text. So here's my answer:

There are several ways to do it:

1. <strike>stike</strike> → strike
2. <del>strile</del> → strike
3. <s>strike</s> → strike
4. ~~strike~~ → ~~strike~~
5. ~strike~ → ~strike~

Because tildes don't work on Stack Exchange (later: SE) platforms, the HTML syntax is the most correct way to strike your text. This syntax is a little 'hack' to do the same thing instead of the markdown notations.

Because there is no universal notation for markdown text, the notations may be different for each platform. Here is an overview for several platforms:

• On Slack, you must use a single tilde
• On GitHub, you can use all notations
• On SE platforms you must the HTML syntax notations, as said above.

The GitHub Flavored Markdown only mentions that you can use double tilde, but you can use everything.

Just use ~ to enclose whatever you want to strike.

Here's a GIF.

Just use ~ character at the start and the end in markdown.

~strike~
