Additional information

Misc question: why does it seem like there’s a lot of discrepancies between live preview and reading mode? Is it not possible to use the same rendering engine for both?

We don’t support this yet. renamed and moved to FR.

Is there a list of features not supported in Live Preview? I assumed any major discrepancy between Live Preview and Reading mode is a bug, if it’s not rendering valid markdown.

People continue reporting this as a bug (ex1, ex2) which makes sense to me. It’d be really helpful to have a description of what’s supported and what isn’t.
