This only seems to happen when those characters are character entities in the formatted_body (not when it's a simple plain message, for example). The content of the event in the screenshot is:

{
    "body": "<ServoFire> I know you can set that to happen in Cura when you slice the file with the print order option",
    "format": "org.matrix.custom.html",
    "formatted_body": "&lt;S​ervoFire&gt; I know you can set that to happen in Cura when you slice the file with the print order option",
    "msgtype": "m.text"
}

and it renders as expected (using < and > instead of &lt; and &gt;) when viewing the event in the room itself.

There are a lot of related issues involving broken previews of html-encoded text, including but not limited to pills #16262, text decorations #16330, newline/whitespace #16169, etc. I would expect these all fall back to not interpreting the html correctly.
