A Friendly PSA for OpenAI: Two ChatGPT Bugs to Squash

As a daily user of ChatGPT, I've noticed two persistent problems that often disrupt my workflow. Below is a quick rundown for the OpenAI team in case these issues haven't surfaced on your radar yet.

Markdown Escaping Issue

When ChatGPT shares .md snippets or code blocks, the assistant's own markdown formatting sometimes corrupts the output. Syntax elements like backticks or underscores merge with ChatGPT's response formatting, so the code appears broken and is hard to copy cleanly. It's especially noticeable with multi-line blocks or when special characters are escaped prematurely.

Project Folder Tab Unresponsive

Another recurring bug involves the "See More" menu. Clicking the Project Folder tab does nothing, making it impossible to browse or manage files. Refreshing the conversation or switching browsers doesn't help—the tab simply refuses to open.

Call to Action

I hope this PSA is helpful. Fixing these issues would greatly improve the developer experience. Thanks for looking into it, OpenAI team.
