I’m just testing something, ignore this post it’s about MN formatting

[PuppyMonkey]

I want to make a list on MN.

1. this is nice
2. this is great
3. this is lovely.

The formatting is already out slightly when i look at this numbered list, number 1 is too far indented. 2 and 3 are fine though.

I wonder what will happen when I post this message….

I don't see numbers, just bullet points (but the alignment of the first one is off)

#make it big

So why is it when numerous threads I see are are posted, the number 1 is indented pretty far in, but the subsequent numbers are tabbed much further left?

I don’t expect anyone to be bothered about this so don’t reply anyone else. I just wanted to do it myself

Your numbered list looks fine (numbered, even) to me on a computer.

This is bizarre because when others post numbered lists I always see it number 1 is too far off to the right. But my list looks ok to me. What are others seeing?

This is what you're post looks like on my phone

Even weirder but on the app the numbers are not numbers- they are bullet points? The first bullet shows the wording indented too

I'm on the app and I see this:

Chrome android

I see the same as @dudsville .

Numbered, not bulleted.
No indents.

This is what it looked like before I posted it (on iPhone, mobile site) number 1 slightly off. But on posting it, it looks ok. How weird.

This is odd! Why is it different between different bits of tech?

Oh yes, except there were definitely numbers in my post.

OP: Ignore this post please.
Everyone else: 👀

😄

I see the same as @AhhSlippedOnMahBeansRitaaa

1. I have
2. never
3. used
4. a list
5. on MN
6. until now.

My first one is also misaligned in preview.

All very strange.

• wonders if asterisks does something weird too.

• Maybe not?

Ah. Changed them into bullet points.

I don't understand how they have programmed all this wanky formatting but forgot auto-capitalising for new paragraphs.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏽‍♀️

I've seen what you're talking about too OP.

1. I have a hypothesis that I will test in this list.
2. Unfortunately it requires me to think of long sentences to trial it.
3. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

Hmm, no, that looks ok!

On the app o see bullet points lol no numbers involved
