MN app randomly "bolding" bits of my posts.

Good evening!

I've been using the MN app, and I've noticed that random bits of my posts will suddenly appear bolded upon posting. Not a major app-breaking issue, but still a minor annoyance.

I'm currently using an iPhone with the latest update (iOS 11.0.2) installed.

Hi @BlackPepperCrab, without seeing an example, this could be because you’re using the ‘*’ symbol which emboldens everything within two of them, as with other markup.

If it’s something different to that, could you show a screenshot of it happening? Thanks!

Hi Tim thanks for the speedy reply!

I'm checking it out on my computer at the moment and on posts where this has happened it shows me putting in a double asterisk. I haven't done this on mobile though. Just asterisk name asterisk (at this point said name will be auto-bolded) followed by my regular post.

Sorry if that explanation is awful; I'd try taking before and after screenshots for all my posts to see if it happens again!

@BlackPepperCrab a screenshot would be helpful, thank you!
