Has anybody had success with plain text working in teams in business? I prefer it myself but teaching everyone I work with markdown, org-mode, git etc seems like a big undertaking. For example, we have a specification in development and that spec lives in Microsoft word. Plain text would make tracking the changes and collaborating on it much easier IMO, but word has it’s own abilities to do that. And with plain text you give up the wysiwyg formatting which people are accustomed to. Perhaps writing specifications in confluence would be better than plain text or word - who knows. It’s likely only because of my bias that I think plain text is a reasonable choice.
