✋🏻 I got tired of the different Markdown versions and dialect and searching for a uniform and stable markup syntax I've found Emacs and its related Org Mode.
Since it was at least three decades since I wanted to try it, but never found a nice occasion, I've jumped on it and, to better learn it and the Org Mode syntax, I've ended up building my digital garden (https://marcoxbresciani.codeberg.page/) with it!

bit@iznogoud I'm a programmer, I use emacs because it has every feature I need 'out of the box'. I can setup every thing I need without writing a single line of code. It's available on every platform I use. It's performant, stable, and well supported.
I don't use editors that focus on speed. Most of my time I spend thinking, not writing, that is not a bottleneck. I don't need the shortcuts to be fast, I don't need to keep my hands on the home row, I don't need single digit millisec response times.

tusharhero@iznogoud It is a program that deeply respects the user in practice.
Chip Butty@tusharhero emacs rewards investment in a way no other editor ever has for me.

withoutclass@iznogoud Org Mode got me started, then I just started doing more and more in it.
The Grue@iznogoud you mean right today?
- plan my to-dos
- write an #Arduino sketch for a #mysensors controlled infinity mirror
- read my email
"Nowadays" - I wouldn't be able to stop writing 😁
