1. Text makes a hard return every timevai hit the space bar. 2. Creating double bracket links [[]] creates hundreds or red and white dots instead of a link. I can't delete them. Trying to delete them just creates more of them. I've closed and restarted the app several times and neither issue has been resolved. This has been happening for a month.

Hello, hope you're doing great, and thank you so much for the amazing app. however, I have surprised today the app is not working and my 6 months' worth of notes are not opening, I'm a Ph.D. student, thus this's is a real problem for me. looking forward to receiving a solution. best regards, Njoud
