Damus still not ready 
Discussion
I mean, is not horrible, markdown is still readable as plain text. I also use openbox, so my sense of user friendliness is a bit off. This is probably just a confusing mess to a lot of new damus users, right?
Better to do it as plain text?
Damus deliberately does not format Markdown. It used to and was removed, I believe. Requiring clients understand Markdown adds more complexity to notes that are otherwise and arguably unnecessary.
Yeah, I figured that after I posted. Things are much more complicated than they may look to the end user.
No reason to have markdown in a “simple” chat client
For now. Hopefully someday Nostr clients consume web browsers, and everything is decentralized. I want my notes to be web pages.
