Research direction
Start by tracing the edit-post flow in IceCubesApp and compare how Markdown-formatted content is handled when creating, displaying, and editing a post. Reproduce the issue on the reported macOS/iOS environment; done means the edit window retains the existing Markdown formatting and the edited post preserves it.
