In the sandbox vault I placed the cursor right before “about”, typed Ctrl B followed by Ctrl I, and got this, which seems good:

First of all, tell me a little bit ***about*** what's your experience with note-taking apps like?

Then I placed the cursor immediately after “your”, typed Ctrl B followed by Ctrl I, and got this, which is less good:

First of all, tell me a little bit ***about*** what's **your**** experience with note-taking apps like?

It surrounded “your” with bold markers but then placed both italic markers after the closing bold marker.
