fix markdown on the mobile site
There's already a previous request for this but it appears close as "not clear." so I'll try to make it clearer:
In chrome on desktop, compare:
https://m.twitch.tv/adjstreams/about
with
https://twitch.tv/adjstreams/about
Mobile browsers default to the top URL, so they suffer broken "about" pages. It's simply not applying any rendering of markdown at all, or rendering non-breaking space HTML entities either.

The "About" section in channels has been broken on the mobile site for a long, long time. Markdown is rendered as a single paragraph chunk of plaintext, not supporting even simple paragraphs.
Is the team somehow unaware of this? This is quite a weird bug to keep unaddressed for so long, I'm genuinely curious what the story here is.

Sometimes I wonder how certain platforms can grow this big even when they are not able to fix their ****. But I guess only a few people are using mobile devices these days
Same thought here: Unbelievable
Edit: There are posts on Reddit and other sites mentioning this bug from 5 years ago. We should not hope that this will be fixed in the current century
Edit: But they were able to implement the censoring function on twitch.uservoice.com. Otherwise it would be scary in here :)

It's 2023 and the problem is still persisting. Unbelievable.

It is displayed correctly in native apps. However, it is not displayed correctly in Safari and other smartphone browsers.

Wild that this hasn't been fixed yet - it's also broken in the native mobile apps.
