Redmine

With Text formatting set to Markdown, the following doesn't render correctly:

List:
* item 1
* item 2

In order to have the list items rendered (with bullet point and indentation), a leading newline is necessary, like this:

List:

* item 1
* item 2

My team mates continue creating lists which don't render because of this anti-intuitive syntax.
In github and other markdown based systems I haven't seen this behaviour, thus I think it's a bug.

Observed in Redmine 3.3.1
