Frankly, Github did a very poor job at communication this breaking change.

I only recently discovered that most of my post got broken.

Apparently it's no longer legit to use "#Title", you need to "# Title" (and god knows what else).

Linking is broken too - in Jekyll 2 there was no difference if a URL ended in "/" or not - you were just taken to the page, now this is a massive, although fixable pain (see https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/issues/4440)

As a result my site experienced 500% drop in organic search referrals from Google.

I got no single email from then announcing this change. Very unhappy with how github handled it.
