I think there are some strange issues when you add text in the line following the TOC. You need to look at the [raw post](https://meta.discourse.org/raw/276757) to spot all the problems.

 
I added a TOC in the line above. Now, I start a new line, but the text shows as one line. There are problems with formatted code, so you cannot see `` or ``` ``` . Although I used code tags. When I use a without an end and leave a line free, 

the text below remains dark in dark themes.

I’ve seen a similar issue to this before, and I have a few scenarios for it:

1. `<ex>` Then text:

Some `unformatted` text \*\*here\*\*. This is a different line. `` ``` ```

A _double_ newline fixes this.

2. Text before `<ex>`

**formatted** _before_  
  
**Still formatted** _after_ `<With code>`

<With long code>

This is just the bug(feature?) of mixing markdown and HTML. The second line is recognized as a part of html.
