I know. That's why I said "I hope Github improves Org mode support at some point." :)

If you like Org mode, you can overcome the Github/etc. Org mode rendering limitations by hosting small static sites for your projects. You may choose to do so by simply exporting Org to HTML using ox-html[1], or even exporting Org to markdown for Hugo (disclaimer: my package -> ox-hugo)[2].
I mean, if you like using Org mode, and Github et al don't see the value in improving support for that, don't use them to render Org mode docs :)

- svnpenn 7y agoThe problem isnt the quality of GitHub with Org-Mode. The problem is that the GitHub syntax highlighter, PrettyLights, is closed source: https://github.com/github/pages-gem/issues/160 https://github.com/github/pages-gem/issues/160 So you cant get consistent results between github.com and github.io
