#asciidoc — Public Fediverse posts

Is there really no way with AsciiDoctor of defining a macro that expands to some token sequence with substitutions of the arguments without writing some Ruby / Java / JavaScript that is then not portable across implementations?

Anyone here know if there's a way to make #AsciiDoctor support #Kramdown #Markdown style footnotes[^¹], as I'm not that fond of in-line footnotes?

I mean, the whole thing about *foot*notes to me is that their content is at the bottom, so they don't distract from the text I'm currently reading.
Sure, this is the case in the output with #AsciiDoc's inline #footnotes, but not in its source.
