Please allow users to turn off auto-formatting
I know auto-formatting *this* into this and **that** into that etc. is a feature, but I would like to have the option to turn it off altogether. In my circles asterisks are used to designate action rather than fancy speech. I never liked it that a whole bunch of chat softwares stole my asterisks from me and made them into a shortcut for something I never needed.

Put a backlash in front of the formatting so they don't format. "\*test*" 1 -
You can put a \ before every character that triggers markdown so it won't be parsed as such. 0 -
add \ before every md character to escape them, ex: \*heyy\*

Yeah, why not just go !@#!#@hey!@#!#@ instead -.-

the backslash doesn't work anymore, at least with the desktop app. Before, using four asterisks would make it possible to show them, but now discord has completely blocked it. Honestly, if it weren't for link sharing (at which steam sucks) I wouldn't use this app.

Please stop telling us to use a backslash.
Why should we have to use a backslash just to make a text application transmit the text we type? It's one thing to offer it as a workaround, but to use that to dismiss what others want is rude. It's valid for you to want markdown, and it's valid for others to not want it.
Personally, I just want it to transmit the exact text I type. I am aware of how to use markdown. I don't want to use markdown and I don't want to be expected to use it. Yes, you can get used to it, but it's basically installing another TSR in my mind. It's bloatware for the brain. It is another mental filter that I must run all my text through if I'm to type, and I don't want to have to do that.
