Markdown Strikethrough doesn't render properly

[DavidGinzberg]

The strikethrough (double tilde) markdown is not rendering on the duckduckhack site. Instead it is displaying as plaintext, as seen in the Cheat Sheet Ideas section

[DavidGinzberg]

The Github flavored markdown documentation mentions that strikethrough using double-tilde is an addition that is not part of standard markdown. Not sure the flavor/implementation used on the documentation page but that may be relevant.

Cheers for reporting this @DavidGinzberg Assigning to @moollaza to investigate - markdown parser :+1:

Looks like the Markdown parser we use does not implement the ~~ syntax. For now, I've switched them to <del> and everything seems to be working!

Thanks a lot for reporting this @DavidGinzberg
