Copy numbered list from Notes to Messages

I used to be able to copy a list formatted in Notes into Messages and retain the list formatting, for example numbered lists.

Now instead they come in as plain text without the leading numbers. This seems to be true since the latest update to iOS 18.1.1. It is true on both my iPad Pro and iPad.

Why did this useful feature get lost?

Or let’s call it a bug and get the capacity restored in an update?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 18

Manually save notes taken in Apple Notes Hello community, In the last month, I've been using Apple Notes a lot. However, from the last week it started not to save my last edits, especially last Sunday, in which out of 2 hours of works it saved only the first 20%. So, I'd like to know if there is any way to manually save, or make it auto-save each time there is an edit. I take my notes only with Apple pen, on my iPad 9th generation. Thanks a lot! The attached video shows that if I go to another note and then return, it won't save the last edits (fortunately, it's only 2 lines this time). I can know if it saved every edits by exporting that into PDF in any way there is (I used the marking one, but it's the same result with printing option) Issue video
