If you use the code block mark up ``` when sending a message, the result message is very difficult to read with a blue background text box. I discovered this when trying to send somebody text in markdown that wouldn’t be interpreted by the rendering engine.

Feel free to ask if I am not clear enough

    I hadn’t noticed this before. I had only tested it with a very short code block where the syntax highlighting happened to render just fine. I’ll see if I can’t make a new theme for the syntax highlighting that has better legibility with the blue background, if not I may just disable syntax highlighting on the outgoing messages.

    Thanks for letting me know about this!

      Thanks. Yeah, I should have specified it was a long code block. Sorry I wasn’t more clear.
