@MartinSleziak Well, I can't really reproduce examples because as I said before, formatting don't work sometimes So obviously I can't tell when it work or when it don't work
Mostly what I have seen for italics is: *text* don't work but _text_ work and vice versa
And sometimes both works! (As it should)
And sometimes code formatting don't work. with backticks e.g., `code` don't work
But when I do Ctrl+k on it, it works
@MartinSleziak No, single line messages
@MartinSleziak These are similar but mine is somewhat weird

@daya I am not sure whether I understand what you mean. Are you saying that the same message is sometimes rendered correctly and when you look it another time it is not?
In any case, I don't have any better advice than asking on meta.
Let's hope that some more experienced user notices your message - perhaps they'll be able to come up with some better suggestion.

@MartinSleziak No, what I mean is formatting don't work just everytime
 
Well, then perhaps you could save the link to such messages when you see them - so that you are able to provide examples if you decide to post a bug report.
Sorry that I do not have some better advice.
 
Fo example, Let's suppose I am sending a message which have italics, code etc., and It might work today
But another day, it might not
@MartinSleziak Okay, cool. I hope somebody will notice it :)
@MartinSleziak I found one link!

I really wish that the Stack Exchange Network would make a much clearer stance on homework questions
^ Here messages have ">" but they are not formatted as you can see
 
I think I've seen some problems with ">" too - formatted differently among starred messages and in the room/transcript.
However, the message you link to is a multiline message.

Something like:

> **Can I post homework questions here?**

> A question doesn't become off-topic, just because it is homework that you have been given, but the same rules for questions still apply. Do your homework to the best of your ability and identify a specific problem you are stuck with, rather than copying your homework and hoping that somebody will do it for you.

> An example: Your task is to write a simple program in C, which listens on a TCP port, receives a message <1kB and then replies this same message. As you attempt to solve this challenge, you encounter an error when runni
 
So It don't work with multiline?
But I think I have seen formatting with multiline too

I've seen some bug reports about problems with MarkDown in multiline messages: Markdown in Chat fails for Multi-Line Messages, a Reprise and Markdown in chat fails for multi-line messages.
 
@MartinSleziak Yep, for code formatting I have observed it
">" with multiline formatting
https://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/51354858#51354858
 
Yep, but that's fine imo, main concern is fornatting should work correctly in
room/transcript
@MartinSleziak ttyl

I have asked also in Tavern on Meta.
What I got as a response was this bug report: Text formatting after a dot renders correctly at first but shows incorrectly once chat message has been posted. But I'm not sure whether that's what you're looking for @daya.

Maybe we are simply too optimistic about formatting in chat.

and chat markdown has always been its own dialect
