I would ditch Obsidian in a heartbeat once there's a Markdown support in Apple Notes.

#93Microsoft notepad is also getting markdown support. It's a very interesting coincidence! Overall, I'm surprised to see markdown become mainstream so quickly. https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2025/05/30/text-fo...
I wish they stopped adding feature to notepad. Or if they really wanted to, create a new app note.exe and add features to it instead.

#95Markdown is the defacto language of the llms. Between this and the python library from Microsoft that converts all of their formats to markdown I think that markdown officially has won the markup language war.
Which is funny because it’s really an incomplete spec that originated from a blog post. But it won anyway because both machines and humans can use it with relative ease, which is apparently quite a difficult thing to achieve in a markup language
It might be my Emacs bias, but I find Org much nicer as a format. For instance, timestamps and todo items make it trivial to use Org as a planner. This would be great to have in applications such as Apple Notes.

#96I made a feature request for this very thing within the latest version cycle. I imagine others have as well. Maybe they listened, maybe they didn’t, but here’s hoping! Edit: I fell for the headline. This is only to export in markdown, not directly write in markdown. So close, yet so far.
I should probably go back to Notational Velocity, but am spoiled by iCloud. It’s effectively the perfect scratch pad notes app. Markdown for all content, search is also document creation, great key bindings, sorting by all relevant fields, and fast.

Oof, I got really excited about this for half a day or so...
Maybe worth changing the headline?

#98Sometimes I wonder if there's a place for me in the software economy.
Then I remember that some people's jobs is just to guess what Apple will do next.

I thought this was huge news so I posted it here and it got no eyes.
