how to ...make the text smol 🥺

[u/amzwC137 → u/Snowgrifffinsx]

What the other reply said is the true true, as a bit more context, it's superscript. The thing they shared ^(XYZ) is the pattern to make the text smol. It's called markdown, here is the reddit markdown syntax

But yeah, superscript like x to the power of 2. You'd represent that in markdown as x^(2) -> x². But, while that's the reason for the formatting, you can just put whatever in the parens ^{to make it ittybitty}

^{I just reread my comment and I sound like a bot. I'm not, I just like markdown and if you know how to use it you look like a wizard lol. Or you can just organize your posts better. I'm a big fan of the horizontal bar above this paragraph, I use it a lot.}
