That's the entire problem with JS: i can't browse a page without a complex rendering engine (arguably full of security vulnerabilities) or even scrape it. Something like webmention/microformats (indieweb) federation becomes almost impossible with you due to your setup.
Also worth noting, rendering the Markdown on the client is super inefficient. First, because client-side JS will always be far slower than native code server-side: i first need to download the entire JS then run it in a super slow sandbox. Second, because there's economies of scale to be had: it may take a few milliseconds to build the markup, but every client has to do it. For n client, that's O(n) complexity vs O(1) for server-side rendering. So many CPU cycles wasted :)
