#22If you use Emacs, these face tweaks (and `imenu-list`) I mentioned the other day help aesthetics and readability lot, IMHO:

One thing I forgot to mention is that Emacs's normal `M-q` "filling" works well with `markdown-mode` -- makes the text tidier, and makes nested bullets and enumerations more legible. (And you might want to `M-x customize-variable RET fill-column RET` to 79 or 80, rather than the historical default of 72.)

#23I have drawn a blurry line of what constitutes an OK, beauty-ish, well-done tool. Beyond that, all are the same. I tend to continue with the one I got earlier that works fine. These days, I write quite a lot of plaintext/markdown in Obsidian and Sublime Text.
However, if I have to flush out an editor focusing on writing, then iA Writer[1] is beautiful. I got my copy long back when they released it and never had to pay additional to use it or a subscription. Have an attachment with iA.net as one of those clean, minimal design companies, and my long-term product design friend used to intern with the company.

#24On macOS, iOS I can recommend https://ia.net/writer. There's not really space to be ugly as it's very minimal.

#25Typora has an elegant, minimalist interface: https://typora.io/
Also has hybrid rendering!
No weird 2nd pane just to have the readable pretty markdown.
For android: https://jotterpad.app/ (also has a desktop app, never tested it though)

Desktop: https://typora.io/
Mobile (and Desktop): https://jotterpad.app/

#27I enjoy Obsidian [1] daily. Perhaps more than a minimal editor, but very powerful overall.

#29Personally I'd say vim, but I respect those that will say emacs.
with emacs you need to go full org-mode :)
