For some lists (blue arrows) there is no vertical space between list indent lvl 1 and indent lvl 2, while for other lists, which are constructed the same (from what i could see at least) there is a `~0.7` of a row of vertical space.
I have tried to have the same indentation for the whole document:
```plaintext
- indent lvl 1, "-" is at column 1
- indent lvl 2, "-" is at column 3 (there are 2 spaces before the "-")
- indent lvl 3, "-" is at column 5 (there are 2*2 spaces before the "-")
```

Probably loose vs. tight lists.

You have to be consistent, either all tight or all loose. You can’t mix.

Nope, totally the same spacing between the lines.

This doesnt show it. All vertical space looks the same.

Simpler to repro if you keep it very simple

not really seeing it. You think links are the issue? You need to break this down to the absolute minimum.

😠 That’s _exactly what I said it would be_. You convert it to a loose list when you add spacing like that.

I still don’t understand ☹

You cannot have lines between the bullets, if you do, it converts everything to a loose list. Perhaps the nested nature of the lists is obscuring the issue for you, _but the rule is the same no matter how nested the lists are_.
Either a list is loose, or it is tight. There is no in-between state.

Ok. I see now where the problem was. The loose ones are applied even though i have nested inbetween, right?
Sorry for the brain fart!
