  I wish Markdown had better support for tables.

  My choice of file-format for documents sorted by complexity of the content:

  1. Markdown
  2. Orgmode
  3. Typst

    I have not come across 2 & 3. Very interested in Typst after a quick look…

      I can wholeheartedly recommend Typst over Latex (if one does not depend on exclusive Latex packages).
      The syntax makes sense, it is powerful and the compiler is fast.

        I thought Typst looked interesting, I just have too many years of LaTex mental patterns and Vim shortcuts to be bothered to try it. I’ve suggested Typst to a couple of friends who later said,“thanks.”

  I miss the Steve Jobs era of iWork.

  I won’t say it was the best (why were there no pivot tables in numbers?? And why is the current implementation shit requiring manual refreshes that you can’t rely on?), but the software worked very uniformly and was straight forward.

  If he hadn’t died he would still be yelling at them to make keynote and numbers work, and he probably wouldn’t have missed the collaborative editing boat.
