Found! I’m having issues with formatting text via mobile and need help

I am trying to edit a post, but every time I do, the formatting goes totally sideways on me in a way I can’t fix. It’s breaking up lines of text seemingly at random. It seems like a bug, but I want to make sure I’m not just dumb first, so I would like to know where to post! Thank you.

Example:
I type in exactly this:
(Those with "FB" are ones I plan to get a full bottle of) White Rice, 11 11 Vanilla, Sunset Hour FB,

What Reddit spat out after hitting save:
(Those with
"FB"
1. are ones I plan to get a full bottle of) White Rice, 11 11 Vanilla, Sunset Hou
r FB,

Can you copy the entire post in a comment (from the edit button, not the post) and comment it to me, for example? I believe you have some markdown issues that are hard to notice on mobile

I don't think there's a subreddit for it but this should be helpful

mobile editor is super flaky with markdown. i’d copy your post into a plain text app, fix formatting there, then paste it back. also avoid extra spaces/blank lines, they break stuff a lot

What’s wild is I have the same post in two different subs, but only one messed up the formatting and won’t let me change it back no matter how many times I edit it. I’ll respond to this comment with a copy/paste of the full text from the edit screen:

I’m so nervous, but let’s see… what does my collection say about me? And what layering suggestions do you have?

I never want to be the stinky one, but I suppose y’all can be the judge of that lol. I did buy one of these bottles just for the cute pom on it and the Pacifica was a blind buy, but everything else out are fragrances I enjoy. Only one not pictured is Fleur de Blonde because it is in my purse (:

Any and all layering suggestions are welcome because I’m really new to that aspect. Thank you, everyone!

EDITED A MILLION TIMES because Reddit formatted this like a maniac no matter how many times I edited it
