But, almost everyone does? Would you prefer all web articles to be strictly in plain text, same colour? No font changes between text and code, no colors for quo

But, almost everyone does? Would you prefer all web articles to be strictly in plain text, same colour? No font changes between text and code, no colors for quotations, no indented multilevel bullet points? Basically, nothing that markdown can do. In your opinion, those things don’t improve ease of reading, right? What about syntax highlight in code - nobody needs that either, am I getting it right?
- jonathanstrange 5y agoNot in emails, you got that right.
- Wilem82 5y agoAnd how are emails any different from web articles? Both contain structured thoughts represented as structured text, both often contain code and quotations, lists and so on. Why special treatment?
- mro_name 5y ago> And how are emails any different from web articles? Totally different. Try for one week to substitute every sent/received email with web articles instead. It's like a cake and an elephant not being essentially the same, just because they're both made of atoms.
