They were formatted correctly. This screenshot here is of the rendered text, not the source. The issue is that with markdown, you need two newlines to create a new paragraph. If you only use one newline, the subsequent line just gets placed at the end of the previous line. But the Lemmy spoiler syntax does not work that way; you can put the ::: delimiters directly above and below the spoiler text without the need for any extra lines. Because Eternity does not recognize the spoiler syntax here, it is placing all three lines of each spoiler into one line just like it would do to any arbitrary text.

Ah, I see now, thanks. I didn't know where the original post was, or I would've confirmed. I suppose I could have figured out it was for Forza Horizon in retrospect.

You can get a new line (as opposed to a paragraph) with Lemmy using 'space space enter' but I didn't realise that spoilers don't even need that.
