(2023-11-14) The Markdown Web

The Markdown Web. You cannot replace the ’Web; Every Grand Scheme to Reinvent The ’Web just creates unpaid work for developers to boost another company’s profile.

We must hijack the ’Web.
Use what already exists.
Sidestep the bullshit.

Serve Markdown documents directly to users.

No CSS. The reader decides how it should look.

If you allow web-markdown to include chunks of HTML, and this thing actually takes off, then Google et al. will just wrap a ton of HTML in the mearest amount of web-markdown to get it to render and we will be back to square one.

Without HTML, JS & CSS we allow for all new web-markdown browsers to be made that don’t need an impossible-to-recreate-from-scratch monsterous rendering engine bolted to it!
