The more people insist that real writers use Microsoft Word, the more my resolve to never use Microsoft Word hardens. (I have not owned a copy since Office 2000, and that only because it came with the last PC I bought.)

@AlanRalph I usually get away with Pages when I need to edit Word files (they tend to be simple, other than track changes/comments, which Pages seems to handle like a champ). Otherwise, I tend to either be doing Markdown or writing in Scrivener.

@chipotle hello, tribe! Even at work — where MS apps are de rigueur — I use markdown in VSCode or Typora, and Markdown even in the Azure DevOps wiki. (Or type in MultiMarkDown or Ulysses on my Mac and save to a shared folder.) Any good Mardown apps on Linux?

@jamesdasher I haven't found any great Markdown apps for Linux but I haven't really been looking. :) I suspect I'd end up using a text editor with a Markdown mode, which is what I actually do in my day job (albeit on a Mac, using BBEdit).

@chipotle yep, that's VSCode on Windows, for me. Wish the MD support/implementation were a little more robust, but compared to a few years ago? Wow. Currently updating the kubuntu VM, or I'd be checking gedit for MD mode...
