Description
Steps to reproduce
We use LocalAI / Mistral as the AI backend for our Nextcloud. The new "summarize email thread" feature is fascinating.
The summary seems to be Markdown with bold formatting and lists (see screenshot). I guess this is common for such AI summaries. It is however displayed as plain text.
Expected behavior
The summary should be shown as formatted text.
Actual behavior
The summary is Markdown, but shown as plain text.
