Hey! This behavior is partially intended. Surrounding words with "_" will turn them into italics which will in turn remove the surrounding underscores.

@kilpert Thanks for reporting this issue. I reproduced this here. It's expected that this happens since all these commands render the text as markdown.st.text is rendering it as text without using markdown rendering. Changing this to feature request since it would make sense to allow an option to somehow deactivate markdown rendering, maybe supporting something like in Github Markdown: https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#ignoring-markdown-formatting

You are completely right. I forgot about the markdown. Never really use italic. This is a better way to output error messages:

st.error(f"`{error.message}`", icon="⚠️")

Since this is not a bug, we should close this.

If you would like to reopen this / make a new issue to allow an option to deactivate markdown rendering I could try to work on this feature. Would I be able to get assigned this @LukasMasuch ?
