Hey, guys!

I was just writing a post and realized in the preview some things are working differently, and not in a good way.

The first (and worst) is that the text editor is not respecting empty lines anymore. Leaving them there is good to give the reading experience some space to breathe, but this gets critical in my forum, where we discuss poetry. To make things even worse, this changed everything that had already been posted, so now we have dozens of poems wrongly formatted due to this change.

An example:

 ![I'm afraid you haven't successfully uploaded an image yet for me to analyze and describe. Please try uploading an image and I'll be happy to describe it in a single sentence. (Captioned by AI)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/b/4/d/b4d2c76ed1ab2225be1d02a1da73b71387c92dad.png)

Also, numbered lists aren’t numbered anymore:

1. do
2. you
3. see?

- and
- bullet
- points
- aren’t
- bulleted

What happened? Why did you change this?

Can this be changed back, at least in my forum?

Thanks!
