gollark: They could also make a web frontend.
gollark: I assumed they would at least want emphasis or something.
gollark: But in general Markdown has weird features which interact in weird ways, and if you can get away with it, some HTML-type thing is probably easier since it's at least consistent (not actual HTML5).
gollark: *Only* doing codeblocks is easy enough, sure.
gollark: I think you're underestimating the difficulty of Markdown parsing, or at least Markdown parsing covering a decent amount of the weirdness properly.
