    Hey, what usually triggers this is when 2 different types of specialization interact with each other, so something like bolded content in a list, or a a hyperlink in an image caption. 
    It's not 100% consistent, but it's usually a factor. 

    If you're still stuck with this, can you send me a DM and we can go through some specifics. 


    Also we hope to have some more updates/improvements on this soon, we know it's frustrating to craft a post then get stuck at the end over something so tricky to nail down.

      I just got this pretty bad too. Warned me HTML was invalid...and every single example it gave, according to the source code editor, was image embeds that were previously just fine. Seems editing the post after hte first submission rendered the HTML "invalid" somehow. I had to remove the images outright. I'm sure if I added them again after every edit it'd work but that's tedious.

        It certainly can be. If you want to DM me the post in question and the changes you're trying to make I can take a look.
