@zstg @thelinuxcast We should actually get rid of #Markdown. 😉

It is one of the worst lightweight markup languages you can decide for except for adoption: it's bad with respect for learning, for typing manually and for processing.

Avoid the Markdown flavor hell and go for any other #LML that doesn't come with all the downsides.

#orgdown, the syntax of #orgmode is one of the examples where the downsides of Markdown are avoided.

Please, don't settle for a mediocre solution again.

Markdown Here is a handy open source browser extension for inserting and rendering Markdown in email or rich text fields. Just type Markdown code and click the extension's button (or press Shift-Ctrl-M) to format the text. It also supports code blocks, tables, and math (via an external service).

Tip: to switch back to edit mode after formatting press the button or keys again.

New #blog on #BurgeonLab ✍️

My full guide on how to customize the look and feel of ReText (Python Markdown Editor)! I'm quite happy with this post—one of those "learning while doing" type scenarios.

I've written about #ReText before, so if you're interested in trying a new #markdowneditor, read the first post too on how to install it on macOS.

Aujourd'hui, j'entame deux chantiers :
- la rédaction de ma prochaine communication au Congrès de #papyrologie de Cologne ;
- l'utilisation du langage #Markdown pour y parvenir.

Je ne suis pas sûr que ce soit une bonne idée, car je risque de perdre ma concentration sur mon sujet si la découverte du nouveau langage informatique me perturbe, mais c'est un langage qui est supposé m'aider à bien structurer mon texte et, donc, à rester concentré sur le fond. C'est quitte ou double. Souhaitez-moi bonne chance.

@forgejo My personal highlight of this release: You can now use your #fediverse handle in #markdown documents and it will be marked up as a link to your user profile (or group, etc.).

I'm excited about the future, when mentioning fediverse handles will actually be federated and will send notifications everywhere!

And yes, whoever uses #discord for #documentation and #versioning instead of a goddam #git [doesn't have to be @github / #GitHub or @gitlab / #GitLab or @Codeberg / #Codeberg or even @gitea / #Gitea - just use any git and write down your documentation in a useable format like #Markdown or goddamn ASCII plain text FFS] should be banned for life from #coding, working in #IT or contribute to #FLOSS.

  • Because it's literally worse than people shitting "#Ai" #Slop all over the place cuz that can be fixed faster and easier by backrolling said commits and banning the offender!

Working on a revised list of Docsify-This.net Core Design Principles:

✅ Zero Maintenance Publishing
✅ Separation of Content and Presentation
✅ Platform independence over vendor lock-in
✅ Your content, your control
✅ Support the 5 Rs of OER
✅ Authors helping other authors

Do these resonate with existing Docsify-This users and open #Markdown publishers/educators in general?

docsify-this.netDocsify-ThisInstantly turn online Markdown files into standalone Web pages.

Für alle, die sich mit #Notion, #Obsidian, #AppFlowy oder ähnlichem beschäftigen/abmühen: versucht es doch einfach mal mit #Anytype (vlt. in Kombination mit #Joplin).

Anytype ist echt eine Wucht, was es alles kann. Ja, die Lernkurve ist etwas steiler als vielleicht sonst so, aber „Hut ab“ vor den Entwicklern und der Community für dieses tolle Werkzeug.

Smanettoni e simili a me.

Per le note uso Joplin, su android e linux. Sono 4 diversi PC e un cellulare, con syncthing che sincronizza tutto. MA ogni tanto qualcosa si inceppa e ci metto un po' a risolvere il problema.

Usando Joplin, ho capito e scoperto che alla fine basterebbe usare markdown, che nell'uso basilare che ne farei io mi verrebbe facile. Voglio continuare a usare syncthing per sincronizzare questi file. Che programmi consigliate per questo uso?
