>Outlook is awful.
Yes. And any system that wants to REMOVE the incumbent, has to replace it with superior features.
I mean, what are you actually trying to argue for here? You literally just used Markdown to add emphasis to your post.
Are you going to use a less expressive communication format for your important business e-mails... when you clearly use Markdown for internet comments with complete strangers?
I know HN is full of startups but I can't be the only person who actually interacts with clients on a daily basis.
- Sir_Cmpwn 9y agoJust because Markdown is appropriate here doesn't mean it's appropriate for emails. Comments on internet threads are fundamentally different from emails. If I wanted to emphasize in email I might use a very small subset of markdown's syntax (i.e. asterisks) but only as a coincidence - you know markdown is based on common plaintext email patterns, right?
