Unicode has bold and italics at least, idk about underline.

Derek Ross mentioned Markdown, but didn't mention that Markdown isn't in the nostr protocol spec, and Unicode has 2/3 of these features while being what the nostr protocol actually specifies to use. I don't even think Markdown has the other one, just the same 2/3.

Derek Ross also once gaslit me, wasted my time, and muted me for calling out his bullshit in the past, so I reply to you about his mention of Markdown instead of him because there's no point trying to teach him - he's not interested in learning, he just wants to reply without putting in the effort to know shit.

I thought Markdown in kind 1 was cool in the past too, but unlike Derek Ross, I'm capable of learning.

Instead of trying to jam Markdown into kind 1 notes and break the kind 1 spec that started without Markdown, it would have been better to avoid breaking the NIP-53 wiki spec by keeping Markdown in the NIP-53 spec that had begin with, but Derek Ross didn't back me up against fiatjaf's stupid idea to break the NIP-53 wikis with asciidoc, he ended up muting me over his own bullshit later instead so he could reply even later than that about off-spec Markdown offering the same features as on-spec Unicode in some clients but not all, completely ignoring Unicode and not being able to see it if I try replying to him.
