Inline code in Discourse’s markdown rendered is hardly discernible. Here’s a sequence of the word _code_ with code formatting in every other occurrence: `code` code `code` code. It’s very hard to tell the difference.

Compare for instance with how it shows on Stack Overflow:

And it’s even more obvious on Slack.

How would one go about changing this so that inline code is noticeable?
