I would dispute all of those essays.
Explain to me what we do instead of WYSIWIG and if your answer is anything like Markdown then you've never observed real users.
Hell - I hate markdown and I'm a developer. I do not understand the desire to trash WYSIWIG other than reverse Ludditism.
- spiderfarmer 8y agoThe Markdown vs. WYSIWYG discussion goes along the same lines as the vim vs. Word discussion. You can discuss it, but real users in the target audiences of the products simply don't care about the alternative. To each his own.
- _mrmnmly 8y agogood point. I've never met any client that would like to write in markdown though, but I love it, tbh. My most desirable feature of markdown editor is drag&drop images that turns automatically into `` tags - I wish more editors offer such feature.
