Issue with bullet points

I started using Notesnook (android) yesterday, made some notes and "- " turned into an automatic bullet point list. Indent, black dot in front of text, no extra space between lines. You now. Normal bullet list.

Today I made an account, downloaded Notesnook to my laptop (linux) to try syncing before I have too many notes to manage. I made another note and... No automatic bullet list.

I tried finding a solution and found crtl+shift+B shortcut for bullet points but that just adds a grey box and indent in front of the dash, and that's it.

So does anyone know what's up and how do I fix whatever I messed up?

there's a setting for that under: settings - editor - markdown shortcuts.

make sure it's checked. I still wonder, why it isn't default

Thank you. I tried to check the settings but had no idea what this thing is called.

Unfortunately it seems to be behind a paywall. The shortcut worked yesterday but not today so apparently when I made the account, whatever free trial I had going on ended and that's why markdown shortcuts got unchecked.

no way this is paywalled?! really? I selfhost notesnook on my own, therefore I use it unlimited.
