Y. Happens everywhere, including sandbox vault, and has been ever since I first used Obsidian last year, I believe.
Expected result
Continued indentation, at least until the actual end of the wrapping point (it usually starts bugging out halfway), use a horizontal scrollbar like most other application dealing with many indents. Markdown compliance should support indenting lists as many times as you want.
Actual result
You will eventually see subsequent indentations not have the vertical guide lines and not indent the full amount, continue and the indents will start making the text go in the opposite direction while having greater line spacing.

You might be the first person to encounter it (apparently not; looks like an older post has been merged in here) — lists nested that deep are probably rare. I would guess that it exists at least as far back as 1.0 when the app was redesigned.
This has been an issue for as long as I remember. And I’ve been using Obsidian since the summer of 2020. To try to remedy it I reduced the tabs to 2 spaces to get more items before it begins to behave poorly.
For a while I thought it has been fixed, but definitely breaking around the 4th indentation for me.
I use Obsidian for diagnosing and exploring issues and nesting is inevitable — I get to a point where an issue is not the root cause, so I need to dig deeper and nest more lines/steps under it, until I get to the bottom of it.
Highly annoying to have to use an external code editor for that, as I miss all of the comfort of the Obsidian environment I have created.
