better notes auto sync rewrites markdown code and casues it to not render properly

[bruceherbert]

Hi,
I am using the auto-sync feature to then have my notes files be in a folder, which I am then using in VSCodium to edit with pandoc.

I have noticed that better notes is rewriting the code. For example, if I have added this in, using VSCodium:
[@gleickChaosMakingNew1988]

it gets changed to this:
[@gleickChaosMakingNew1988]

This means that it no longer renders properly. I think it is seeing the [ and then adding in a \ before it.

I have turned off all zotero and VSCodium plugins and have isolated it to better notes. I also turned it off and it stopped happening, so am pretty sure it is doing it.

Is there a way to stop it doing this?

Thanks

Could there be some way of allowing pandoc syntax to be used (and not overwritten)?
