Weird markdown bug with line breaks on certain comments (lemmy.world)

Example comment

It renders correct in a browser but all the line breaks are replaced with a weird symbol in the app.

Not a big deal or anything but I wanted to share!

I notice that the link leads to an Mbin instance. Could there be some discrepancy between the markdown systems in Lemmy and Mbin? I know Lemmy requires two spaces at the end of a line to render a single line break.

Could be!! I saw it on another comment the other day and assumed it was the commenter's issue. Wish I would have saved it so I could see what instance they're on

Seems to primarily happen when switching apps and coming back to Connect

Hmm can't say I've noticed it coming from that. The comment was like that on first viewing and hasn't changed for me
