Markdown Solutions
Solution 1 - Markdown
See the original markdown specification (bold mine):
> The implication of the “one or more consecutive lines of text” rule is that Markdown supports “hard-wrapped” text paragraphs. This differs significantly from most other text-to-HTML formatters (including Movable Type’s “Convert Line Breaks” option) which translate every line break character in a paragraph into a <br /> tag.
>
> When you do want to insert a <br /> break tag using Markdown, you end a line with two or more spaces, then type return.
Solution 2 - Markdown
Just add \ at the end of line. For example
one\
two
Will become
one
two
It's also better than two spaces because it's visible.
Edit:
It doesn't work in some markdown applications, so it may cause incompatibility.

It depends on what kind of markdown parser you're using. For example in showdownjs there is an option {simpleLineBreaks: true} which gives corresponding html for the following md input:
a line
wrapped in two
<p>a line<br>
wrapped in two</p>

If none of the solutions mentions here work for you, which is what happened with me, then you can do the following: Add an empty header (A hack that ruins semantics)
text
####
text
Just make sure that when the header is added it has no border in bottom of it in the markdown css, so you can try different variations of the headers.

I was using Markwon for markdown parsing in Android. The following worked great:
"My first line \nMy second line \nMy third line \nMy last line"
...two spaces followed by \n at the end of each line.

You can also wrap it in a fenced code block. The advantage of this approach is you need not go for additional stuff for every line. However, the content shall be displayed as a highlighted block with a background, so it may not be apt for all use cases.
Lorem inmissa qui propinquas doleas
Accipe fuerat accipiam
Solution 12 - Markdown
The newline character (\n) can be used to add a newline into a markdown file programmatically. For example, it is possible to do like this in python:
with open("file_name.md", "w") as file:
file.write("Some text")
file.write("\n")
file.write("Some other text")
