What's with all the back slashes? \ why not use a regular...

...line break?

\ is a line break in markdown.
Your client seems to not support markdown properly.
Also, I don't like the look of blank new lines where they're not necessary; stylistic choice.

First time I hear that. The usual Markdown line break is two spaces at the end of the line.

It's how Reddit & GitHub flavored markdown works.
Never heard of using two spaces...

Interesting. Both also support two spaces which I've always used there as well. So weird that I've never seen this way of doing it.

can second this, they look kinda strange to me

I don't see any backslashes, but a bunch of regular line breaks
