When i type something and press Enter, it switches to a new line. If i try to post, it all shows in single line. It’s confusing as hell. Am i doing something wrong? I use mobile browser.

    It’s not the simplest way to post something.
    Will turn away lots of folks, i suppose. But it’s doable.
    I’m enjoying Lemmy a lot ;)

      Markdown language is actually very commonly used for posting to different platforms, reddit uses it for example, people coming from there will have no problem knowing out to post on Lemmy.

    As the image already posted indicates, you have to double enter for a full break.

    Like so.

    Iirc, lemmy does line breaks with
    Two spaces and an enter. I know reddit did. And, lemmy does as well lol.

    So, if you want a full blank line between your paragraphs, you double enter. If you just want it to be on the next line, two spaces and enter.

    Markdown is actually really damn nice once you get used to it.
