[Github Mobile]: A PR comment containing specific a HTML element (e.g., <button>, <script>) will not show text after HTML element

Is there a way to escape the HTML elements and treat them as text? I'm assuming the comment is sanitized to prevent stored XSS attacks. If it is not possible, no worries.

If you escape the < it will show as text, and then the rest too because it isn't an HTML element any more. You can simply add a backslash in front of it, or wrap the whole element in backticks to put it into a code section (this is what I'd prefer).

Example:

\<button>
`<button>`

Renders as:

<button>
<button>

Sweet. That's perfect. Thanks a lot.
