Describe The Bug

A Markdown (GFM-extension) table that is not preceded by a newline is rendering fine on the Lemmy website, but not on Jerboa.
There is a relevant issue in Markwon here: noties/Markwon#350

For example on https://lemmy.world/post/20511191, the first table renders fine but the other two don't:

1. Markdown source:

2. Rendering on Lemmy website:
   

3. But rendering in Jerboa:
   

To Reproduce

1. Create a new post
2. Insert a Markdown (GFM) table directly after a non-blank line, e.g.

A table:
| col1 | col2 |
|-----------|------------|
| foo | foo2 |
| bar | bar2 |
| baz | baz2 |

3. Publish the post, or just click on "Preview"
4. The table won't render in HTML.

In the case of a crash or when relevant include the logs

This should be fixed in the markdown library. At most we can add a "hack" for this. But the library is dead so that is unlikely to happen.

More push for #1663

Indeed a more active markdown library would be good for any such issues in the future.

Based on this comment, multiplatform-markdown-renderer seems to not support tables yet, although adding them as a custom component might work transitionally, until they're added to the library.

Yes, this should be handled by whatever markdown library, not here. I'm also fairly certain that commonmark should require a newline for tables anyway.
