Even so, I often store images within my online notes. Linking out to them is one option, but of course means that my notes would be dependent upon a third party host. Being able to paste image blobs into the document and store them with the text would be an advantage if I were to want to use this.
I don't think you can paste images into a Markdown editor.

Org mode files are text files so you can edit them with any editor. Place them in a sync folder and if your sync client is any good it should be able to edit. "Long bit of documentation"? Isn't it the device that's not suited? I sure wouldn't want to do a lot of typing on a handheld device. Emacs shortcuts should be fun.
The point of that if The text is to be edited in a general purpose text editor, I would rather it be in Markdown. Org mode is pretty useless as a format outside emacs proper.
> The code makes use of localStorage() to save the raw text and the time and date of when the edit has been made. Given that localStorage only has 5MiB available to it, you could try using the localForage library to have a localStorage-like API around IndexedDB, so that people can store even larger notes (you could even support storing pasted images as PNG blobs). Even better: is has automatic localForage fallback. A…
There is a very real problem with this extension that will upset people that use it. It’s using the window.localStorage object that will possibly be cleared out when the browser history gets erased. It asks for the storage permission in the manifest but does nothing with it. To the op, use chrome.localstorage() for any read and write operations(edit note that this is async)... that protects against clearing the histo…
I love this , and I wish I could use it, but I've moved to Firefox. You'd have an instant daily user right here if you released it in Firefox.
They even released an Android App to go along with it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.te...
data:text/html,
I got this code from some GitHub gist, but it has served me well for many years.
Serious question: does anyone regularly use a Markdown notes app/site/extension? I've seen this kind of thing appear a few times a year and, while they are cool and I like Markdown, I find I stop using them rather quickly in favor of things like the macOS Notes app or Slack because of things like convenience, ease of sharing, better search, more ease of mind that my notes won't one day disappear because of a side eff…
For the similar reasons I don't really use markdown notes apps. Instead I write all important notes to Evernote despite it being rather heavy weight. When I do use markdown note apps is if I want to quickly jot down an idea or what I just learned. Four months ago I shared this technique with HN [0]. If I were to adopt a markdown app to use regularly, an important factor would be that it is open source. The reason is…
I moved onto evernote for my work laptop and found it horrendous on windows - it wouldn't let me do something as simple as auto-capitalizing first words of the sentence. I'd run into issues quite often and googling it would amount to someone complaining about it on the forums a couple years back and nothing changing. After that I just moved back to onenote.
It's not a replacement for a notes app. Instead, I'm using it to remind me where I left off on my work. It's helping me stay focused. Instead of seeing the distracting new tab screen, I see what I'm supposed to work on.

You realize that all of Pride and Prejudice is ~280KB, right? http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1342 :)
Another nifty datapoint: the plain text of War and Peace is 3.2 MiB
