   Which editor?

   Do you experience similar behavior if you edit a markdown file in Nextcloud Files (i.e. outside of just Notes)?

   I'm using the web interface.

   Yes, just tested a regular .md file in my Documents folder. Exactly the same issue. Thanks for caring :)

   Confirmed, it's an issue with our link input regular expression:

   text/src/marks/Link.js

   Line 85 in 18898ba

   const linkInputRegex = /(?:^|\s)\[([\w|\s|-]+)\]\((?<href>.+?)\)$/gm

   We probably should adjust the expression to accept anything except square brackets in the link title.
