Markdown text is not transformed correctly, instead it remains as markdown

Steps to reproduce

Paste this in chat:

Anything with a `rating` uses an integer from 1 to 7:

- 7 - **Perfect**, must try, life-changing, go out of your way to seek this out
- 6 - **Excellent**, worth repeating
- 5 - **Good**, don’t go out of your way, but enjoyable
- 4 - **Passable**, works in a pinch
- 3 - **Bad**, don’t do this if you can
- 2 - **Atrocious**, actively avoid, repulsive
- 1 - **Evil**, life-changing in a bad way

Why this scale? I like rating out of 7 better than 4 or 5 because I need more granularity at the top, for the good experiences, and 10 is too granular.

Expected behaviour

Text should appear in processed form. This screenshot is from obsidian, but the same text works in github too (see below):

Acording to this gif, *bold* does not work, but only **bold**

Same for italics: _italics_ does not work, __italics__ works.

@ilya-fedin / @Aokromes pls reopen as this is a bug and the resolution above is false.
