Markdown Export Creating HTML Files, Not Markdown

[golflabel]

Bug description "Export Markdown" option exports HTML instead of Markdown.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Click "Export Markdown" option.

Expected behavior A properly Markdown-formatted file would be saved.

Screenshots After taking notes on any given video in YiNote, I click here:

Then my .md file looks like this:

The css styling and clickable links contained in the source text are now missing when rendering a Markdown preview:

Browser

• Chrome
• Version 88.0.4324.150 (Official Build) (x86_64)

Additional context

• I'm using an iMac on macOS Catalina
• I posted in another forum assuming it my lack of Markdown knowledge, but several people confirmed that the document was in HTML, not Markdown.

It seems that in version v1.6.0 in the Chrome extension the behavior is slightly different. Here the exported markdown file doesn´t contain the <p> tags but still has commented out the time stamp links.

current behavior

<!-- ## [4:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf3d7qyz17c&t=297) -->

Notizen als Bulletpoints erstellen und mit Screenshots und weiteren Daten anreichern.

this causes markdown preview to threat this as a comment, and it will not be shown.

proposed solution

removing the comment part <!-- -->from the markdown export
