How does Markdown or Asciidoc differ from Org in this regard?

• stinkytaco 9y ago
  It can be used and read in any text editor. Org is powerful, but it's more like Word than it is like notepad. It automatically formats tables, automatically copies and makes links internally, automatically indents, highlights code snippets, etc. And that's not even getting into further functions you can build with emacs lisp. But it is centrally dependent on emacs for that power. Markdown and asciidoc work in anything.
