I see this in both posts and comments. Unless a new line is inserted between each image link, then the formatting of each image gets worse and worse. I've had this issue for ages, but never had a bad enough post before to get this bothered by it.

The post is formatted something like this:

!{imgURL1}
!{imgURL2}
!{imgURL3}
!{imgURL4}

But would need to be formatted like this to view properly:

!{imgURL1}

!{imgURL2}

!{imgURL3}

!{imgURL4}

Here's a full screenshot of the post:

Huh...

Might be a spacing issue with everything? Not just images.

Even my little example I typed up doesn't render properly for me:

What I typed:

This is a behavior of the site markdown (all markdown? I don't really know) itself.
Single new lines are not actually new lines/paragraphs. If you would like to make a single new line, you have to end the previous line with two spaces

Line 1 with 2 spaces
Line 2 no spaces
Line 3

This is accurate

In case you weren't aware, " is also the symbol for 'seconds'.

I am, I was just making a joke. Although using " on its own here instead of "s" is quite unusual, at least for English, I would say.

Almost never for seconds of time though. But maybe they turned extremely slightly to the left?
