got you, I’m on linux so I can’t tell for sure if it could be a mac bug.
You might have already done this, but try testing other obsidian community themes, perhaps there’s something wrong with the obsidian.css of the theme you are currently using.
When I use two asterisks to apply italic style to my first footnote, all the text following the second asterisk become italic as well, even including the next footnote:
Footnotes in Markdown can be multi-line, so each should be terminated with a blank line, or at least a forced line break (two spaces at the end of a line).
The first word in a footnote does not have formatting applied in Live Preview mode.
Steps to reproduce
Create a footnote with the [^1] and [^1]: text syntax.
Try to use formatting (bold, italic) on the first word of the footnote.
Expected result
The words should be formatted correctly.
Actual result
The first word has no formatting applied.
