The format seems better suited to extension too with ways to have annotations or blocks
- Stratoscope 8y agoYou can do headings in Markdown like org mode, just use # instead of *: # Level 1 ## Level 2 ### Level 3 #### Level 4 etc. I rarely see the fiddly format in the wild, probably for the reasons you mentioned, and because it only allows H1 and H2: Level 1 ======= Level 2 ------- Of course there are lots of things org mode does better than Markdown, I'm just addressing the specific point you mentioned.
