>it does not explain, why seemingly every single Atlassian product including Jira sucks at parsing Markdown or supporting Markdown well.
Australian here, I can provide some clarity on that. Australians in general are fairly lazy; we like to do the bare minimum necessary to get the job done so we can knock off work and grab a beer at 4pm. Atlassian is an Australian company, and has generally inherited such an approach, so there's little tolerance for putting extra effort into things like adding the finishing touches to markdown parsing or improving performance (or even preventing it from regressing).

I remember their gaslight routine whenever a proposal was made: “oh we should never divert from the 80/20 rule and whenever you work on a 20% feature, you are morally stealing from the remaining 80% of the customers. Shame on you!”

- RileyJames 3y agoUnfortunately we’ve been piss farting around and never got round to writing a markdown parser for Aussie++.[1] If you could do a bloke a favour and chuck up a pull request while we nip down the pub for a coupla you’d be a bloody legend. Alright piss off now mate. [1]https://aussieplusplus.vercel.app/ https://aussieplusplus.vercel.app/
