Meh. An overengineered article about markdown. I stopped reading after: "Disclaimer: the data is made-up, based on my perception of the state of the web".
MD is a tool, just as any other tool after becoming familiar with it, you know in advance if it's going to serve you well or not and of its potential limitations.
I keep all valuable personal notes on a local Hugo which is basically all markdown and I wouldn't have this if I had to write things down myself in any other format. So no, is not a curse at all but a timer saver for me it is.
