    Add 2 spaces at the end of your line then enter to the line below for a normal next line

      You can also just put a \ at the end of a line
      Then continue on below
      But I think I like your method better tbh

        I wondered whether escaping would work, but not enough to test it.

        I actually like the escaping method better because

        • My time spent with git has resulted in me seeing lots of editors argue about whether whitespace at the end of a line is acceptable, but I prefer to do without
        • I post almost exclusively from my mobile device, so two spaces create a full stop where I don’t want one
        • I’m accustomed to escaping newlines from my shell scripting experience, so it looks right to me
        • It reminds me of xkcd, which I have frequently enjoyed

        Regardless of which method any of us use, thank you for the information!
