Links in source text file are unclickable on dashboard #169

To make it easy for users to find files in the NextCloud folder tree, I created a Readme.md file in the root folder and it shows in the "Welcome and Useful" widget on everyone's dashboard.

I created it with the NextCloud text editor and created the link by adding it with the link button.

However the URLs displayed are not clickable.

This is my second attempt to facilitate file finding for all users. My first attempt with the Readme.md files sometimes shows its content - intended as the folder description - in the folder display above the list of files, but not when using the folder tree to navigate around the cloud instance. #7958

To Reproduce

Create a readme.md in the cloud root with a list of files with a file name and a link to the open it like this:

My File 1: https://my-next-cloud.tld/f/52741
Another file: https://my-next-cloud.tld/f/521112

and so on.

Exit the readme.md, set up the admin setting for the app to use this file.

Go to the Dashboard, select the "Welcome and Useful" widget.

Notice that the links in the readme.md appearing in the widget are not clickable.

The file is also too long and there should be a scroll bar on the welcome app, but the code escape the container and flow off below the screen.

Expected behavior
The widget should display the content of the md file as intended, not as raw text.
