1. The Gnuserland (gnuserland (a) mailbox.org)

Hi All,

As simple author I would say that I am not interested in having 
compatibility between Markdown and Gemini/Text.

I have a bias cause I decided to serve my thoughts exclusively on Gemini, 
however there are out there plenty of scripts that already convert from 
Markdown to Gemini/Text and most of them are very trivial to use.

The ones who provide content on both protocols already solved this issue, 
they write before in Markdown and convert in Gemini/text after.

Cheers,

TGL

Ive also been writing Gemini first. I find it very terse and use regexes 
to build things out if needed.
