Could you please correct your bot to not use double return for new line, which causes empty lines? And instead use a double space at the end of the line, and then return, which works as a normal return.
I have no idea why Lemmy does formatting this very counter intuitive way, but that's how it is.
They are different things. space+space+return is for a new line, yes, but return+return is for a new paragraph, which is a different thing. There is supposed to be a space, some clients just reduce it to a little less than one full line to look more compact, while others just leave the full empty line like you say. Either way it's the intended behaviour.
This is markdown thing. Lemmy supports markdown formatting.
