I thought people would copy/paste snippets from websites to Obsidian as notes? And many sites have code blocks. I am doing it all the time and usually it works just fine but not for that website.
As an example, I can copy/paste from this site: What is a Quantum Ledger Database? | tecRacer Amazon AWS Blog. If it is not a bug, perhaps it should be flagged as a feature request?
