  4. If you need to parse metadata of markdown code fences (besides language), I just published `@microflash/[email protected]`. Give it a shot. I also managed to remove all third-party dependencies.

  6. I've been mucking about with stage plays and ended up using AI deepfake software to make an audio drama from a couple of them.

    It's actually a lot of fun, but obviously having Russell Crowe star in an audio drama narrated by Alan Rickman would get me kicked off every distribution site on earth.

    Regardless, I think the future of story-telling is facing a revolution. Here is why I think that....

  7. No, I will not be shamed by #unix #greybeards into using #vim or #emacs for all of my text editing needs. Yes, they have a lot of good features, but I'm just too used to the #cua keybindings to completely rewrite my muscle memory. #obsidian and #kate do 99% of what I need text editors to do. Although, that #orgmode looks a lot more functional than straight #markdown ... I wish I had stayed in the CS program back in college; we used emacs all the time, I'd have learned all the M-x codes by now.

  8. #Markdown Is a Disaster: Why and What to Do Instead
    karl-voit.at/2025/08/17/Markdo

    Here's my article where I summarize the subtle and no so subtle downsides when you choose Markdown for your information instead of a different markup syntax that doesn't come with all the downsides of #MD.

  10. Anyone else publishing Markdown -> Static Site Generator here?

    Logseq -> Sourcehut is my setup and I'll be making it sing over the next month.

    Curious about what y'all are working with :)

  11. During switching to an own organization CodiMD also switched from Docker Hub to quay.io as container registry. Major improvement: Security scanning for all images by default.

    Disadvantage: You have to prepend quay.io to the image.

    If you wonder where to find it: quay.io/repository/codimd/serv

  12. A few people wanted to proof-read my upcoming article with (potentially unpopular) contra-arguments on the use of #Markdown as #LML.

    Unfortunately, I can't find those Mastodon messages using its search interface anymore. 😩

    If you're really interested, please write my a DM now. I can accept suggestions until Sunday noon CET.

  13. @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.

  14. @gnulinux Stay tuned. Ich habe zum Thema #Markdown + dessen fürchterliche (und zum Teil subtile) Nachteile eine Artikelserie in Arbeit.

    Da dies oft zu Missverständnissen führt, musste ich da etwas ausholen - kostet viel Zeit zum Recherchieren & Schreiben.

    Den Großteil habe ich bereits.

    Nur soviel: statt MD sollte man Lightweight Markup Languages (#LML) verwenden, die in ihrer ursprünglichen Definition bereits so definiert wurden, dass man die wichtigsten Syntaxelemente nicht erst mit (zueinander inkompatiblen) Flavors usw. bekommt.

    MD hat ja schon in der Urform beispielsweise zwei unterschiedliche Typen von Headings definiert. 🤦‍♂️

    #Orgdown ist so ein Vertreter, das meiner Meinung nach auch die beste Wahl für einen Ersatz zu Markdown ist. Ein Umstieg hat - je nach Anforderungsset - durchaus viele Vorteile, die man erst dann erkennt, wenn man mal Markdown losgeworden ist. Und da zähle ich den hervorragenden Tool-Support durch #Emacs noch gar nicht dazu. Der ist auch optional. :emacs:

  15. Should I dare to do a "why #Markdown is one of the worst lightweight markup syntax languages there is"-session at a UX/UI-dominant #barcamp? 😜

    C'mon, do push me over that cliff! 😆

    Background: karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmod 👉 it's related but would be a different focus since I won't push #orgdown that much - people can be happier with other LMLs as well as long as it's not the #MD hell. (Sneak preview: I'm writing a long article on all the MD issues in order to explain it once and for all since the Mastodon discussions are really annoying to me.)

  16. @ajlewis2 @ellane @feralthoughts @hbowie @reichenstein

    Just for clarification: same holds true for any other markup supported by pandoc, not just #Markdown.

    However, if you stick with a syntax language that doesn't come with this explosion of flavors, you have less issues converting your data - in some cases you don't even have to convert at all any more.

    The issue with Markdown is that its original form defined a small minimum of elements and each tool defined its own potentially incompatible extensions. With other #LML, the "original" or its standard defines the maximum set of elements and therefore, there is no need for "flavors" and no data loss or conversion effort.

    HTH

  17. @Xhuul I haven't found any decent #Markdown editor yet that convinced me.

    And yes, I prefer Emacs with #orgmode.

    I even write my text in Org and use the export-to-MD functions to generate the appropriate #MD.

    That also saves me from remembering the MD-specifics of the current export target. I always mix up the MD flavors currently at hand because I need to use different MD-enabled tools on a daily basis and all of them have their special markup variants - sometimes it's even necessary to use, e.g., different table syntax (within the same MD tool!) for different table properties such as line breaks and stuff. It's really a bad mess with MD. 😔

    Btw: karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmod

  18. With #Markdown, the original (inconsistently designed) #LML syntax format is a minimal set that made much sense when used when typing emails and so forth. Later-on, various tools needed more syntax elements for obvious reasons. Those syntax add-ons extended the original Markdown. However, they were not standardized.

    This resulted in a zoo of very similar but incompatible set of Markdown flavors. Those differences cause information loss by moving from one "Markdown" tool to another "Markdown" tool because Markdown is not Markdown in most cases.

    In contrast to that, #orgdown, the syntax of #Emacs #orgmode, as the one and only original form has - by far - the largest set of syntax elements and various extensions by modules. Any other adaptation of this syntax in other tools chose a real sub-set of the original syntax elements. This makes data transitions much smoother, is less error-prone and causes less data loss.

  19. @pandoc Great idea!

    Let's introduce one slightly change at a time and in a few years we could transform #Markdown into #orgdown without anybody noticing and finally get a consistently designed and easy to learn lightweight #markup language with excellent tool support. 😈

  20. Just discovered the interactive #Markdown tutorial from #Commonmark: commonmark.org/help/ What a great resource!

    (Discovered it through #Jupyter, where they have embedded this into the help menu.)

  21. Just ran into a basic flaw in the commonmark spec/parser.

    github.com/commonmark/commonma

    Going to try and work around it in Kitten as I’m using Markdown-it, which implements the commonmark spec, and exhibits the same behaviour.

    (This is going to delay the next release as I’m considering it a blocker.)

  22. Package Manager for Markdown

    I'm working on a project that is intended to encourage folk to make markdown text files which can be bundled together in different bundles of text files using a package manager.

    Question for coders; Which package manager would you suggest I use?

    Main criterias (in order) are:

    1. Easy for someone with basic command line skills to edit the file and update version numbers and add additional packages.

    2. All being equal, more commonly and easy to setup is preferred.

    #Markdown #CommonMark #PackageManager #Programming #Dev
    #NPM #RubyGems #Cargo #PickingAMastodonInstance
    #Ruby #Python #Rust #Javascript #NodeJs #Lisp #CommonGuide

  23. Questo sito contiene un utile guida con esercizi interattivi per imparare il #Markdown:

    commonmark.org/

    Rettifico come da commenti: in realtà è il sito ufficiale del #CommonMark, una sua possibile standardizzazione. Infatti ne esistono molte varianti.

  24. syntax tip for code block attributes, yielding the best rendering results with both pandoc and on platforms such as , , etc:

    ``` lua {-id .another-class}
    io.stdout:write('hi!')
    ```

    The curly-braces syntax for attributes is ignored when read as , the Markdown variant used by most platforms. The above ensures that syntax highlighting still works with CommonMark, and that the other attributes get respected when converting with .

  25. Pandoc's supports attributes on headings, code, spans, etc. Attributes are enclosed by curly braces and follow this syntax:

    {-value .class-one .class-two some-key="a value"}

    Attributes can define an internal cross-ref target and carry a variety of additional information about the element, e.g. language or styling.

    peace: [שָׁלוֹם]{lang="he" dir="rtl"}

  26. Gewogen und für schwach befunden: Ein erster Test von Bangle.io

    Bangle.io ist ein freier (APGL 3.0, Quellcode auf GitHub) Markdown-Editor, der mit dem Anspruch daherkommt, eine vollwertige Note-Taking-App zu sein (wie Zettlr oder Obsidian). Alleinstellungsmerkmal ist, daß Bangle.io zwar online bearbeitet werden kann, die Dateien jedoch im lokalen Verzeichnis auf dem Rechner des Nutzers gespeichert werden. blog.schockwellenreiter.de/202 #Bangle #Markdown #Zettelkasten
