@anmeisel wow awesome! yes - bug was a re-imagining of what i thought markdown “should” work in a rational world 😅 i described it a bit here: https://tomotama.com/bug
the idea was to find ascii symbols and combinations of symbols that were easier to remember than markdown’s. i also wanted a syntax that made more common sense - so any bugup symbols that are in twos - like **italic** are for a single line of text.
symbols in threes like:
‘’’
preformatted
text
‘’’
are multi-line in nature

@vga256 ahh that's where the bug analogy comes from! I was wondering how that all started hehe 🐞 thanks for explaining! just out of curiosity, where are you based?
