Hello,

I was wondering this for the longest time but never asked.

When I type/post a comment on GZ and press enter for a new line the HTML source adds a "</p>".

This ends up making posts or comments look exteremly long.

I assume it is something my end but I am not sure where or what to look for.

Web Broswer Firefox 119.00 (64bit)

Microsoft Language - English- US Keyboard

Windows 10 Pro 22H2 19045.3570

Any suggestions would be great.

{MOD EDIT : SP : Changed thread title to make it meaningful}

The space in between paragraphs is a break for readers. Otherwise we are looking at walls of text.

Thank you both, if it is normal looking no worries.

If you want a line-break then you can press shift-Enter and the cursor will drop down to the next line but not leave the customary paragraph gap.
