Looks as though the spoiler feature doesn't work quite the same way as on the old site.

What is the meaning of all the dollar signs? Not familiar with those in PGN.

It looks like Lemmy might've messed up the formatting of the PGN, but I tried copying and pasting it into Lichess' board editor and it still worked ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ
