It would be awesome if, when posting comments to a record in Tape, you could format the text of the comment using markdown.
I agree, Markdown is a vital tool in multiple places and my view should be consistently available in as many places as possible where text is used and comments would be very high on the priority list for me. When I wrote this feature request: ⚪ More Markdown support I think I thought it was available in comments so didn’t mention it directly.

100% needed! Not even just for bold, italic etc but having automation create links in comments is something I use all the time

Has the comment formatting feature been added yet? I’m not seeing it anywhere in the documention.
No text formatting in commons to my knowledge. I know right now the team is working on a heavy lift - web forms, dedicated app, the ability to create records using the same technology as the dashboards (drag and drop, multicolumn), and if else logic for fields… After they finish up this new foundation, they will start cranking out more of the little tweaks.

Just thought I should add here that markdown formatted links do work in comments (via automation) I noticed that @Martin_E had mentioned wanting them. The rest is still needed 
All of these are markdown links created via automations:

const { reply, links } = content;
const summary = jsonata('result.summary').evaluate(summaryResponse);
console.log(`Summary: ${summary}`);
console.info(`Links:\n${links}`);
console.warn(`Reply: ${reply}`);
const cleanlinks = links.length > 1 ? links.join("\n\n") : links;
const comment = `
AI SUMMARY:
${summary}
---
LINKS:
${cleanlinks}
---
`
// Add comment
const commentResponse = await tape.RecordComment.create(current_record_id,{"value": comment});
const summarycommentid = jsonata('data.comment_id').evaluate(commentResponse);
console.info(summarycommentid);
I have just realised that I always use a script so can’t guarantee it works if you use the add comment block
