   @aw markdown is kinda like English, you don't use it because it's good

   but if you have personal files you don't expect external contributors to, I have some friends that won't shut up about restructuredtext

     @brennen @m455 @aw oh no, that's good to know

     I will probably just keep rolling in the markdown mud because my I already allocated my "learn the actually good one but also the one that everyone else uses" slots to dvorak, emacs, and pour over coffee

     @m455 @technomancy @aw rST _seems_ like a nice design, but in practice i had to placate sphinx for a while and i'm never going to touch it again if i can help it.

     @technomancy @aw oh gosh i work in restructuredtext every day for work and i hate it haha.

     one thing i opted in for is my own very markdown-like markup language that i purposed made easier to parse, leaving the hard-to-parse parts out, or making an easier markup for those or not making something able to have infinitely arbitrarily nested markup, such as lists

     that way,i can just copy the algorithm i used to parse it to a other language relatively easy
