September 2025: Delivered a stability fix for issue template markdown rendering in endlessm/threadbare. By replacing literal line breaks with folded strings in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug.yml, the render process now consistently preserves intended formatting across templates. This single-commit change reduces template-related formatting issues for contributors and reviewers, improving bug report quality and reducing back-and-forth in triage.
