I see from [this](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-friendly-game-of-mornington-crescent/929179/358) post that the footnote thingy has changed.  
Let’s see \[1\] and also, \[2\].  
This appears to now be a mixture of the 2 previous incarnations, wherein  
you could either have an inline “footnote” which showed up as a button  
with 3 dots on it which would reveal the note when clicked, or a real footnote  
type option with a number with an associated footnote at the bottom of  
the post.  
The worst of both worlds !

1. footnote 1 

2. footnote 2
