Markdown support

It would be great to allow markdown formatting, or at least the subset that includes images and/or named links. For example, I wanted to link the colab notebook, but the link was so long that it made the whole post look ugly. If there was this feature subset, I would then use โœ๏ธ Colab

After seeing this post https://huggingface.co/posts/ceyda/256203719731469 and asking @osanseviero about it, it looks like only links aren't supported in the posts.

Would also be nice to have LaTeX math support, which is pretty much a required feature for me to use Posts over other platforms.

I definitely agree with the latex/markdown/colab issues. I just ran into the same issue as toshas and the lack of markdown in posts is not ideal.

At the very least, the ability to drag an image to the post and move the markdown image to different areas of the post. This way the post would be structured when you click on it to read the full content.
