Description

Tilde strikethrough in markdown view shows tildes rather than an actual strikethrough.
I have confirmed that this works on he android version of the app, but on IOS the tildes show up as normal characters; must mean that the markdown interpreter isn’t working as intended.
Thanks for the great application!

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by reproducing the issue in the iOS markdown view with tilde-wrapped text and compare its rendering with the Android behavior described; done means the text is visibly struck through and the tildes are not shown.
