> Like a good presentation you should start by saying what you'll say

This annoys me so much. Don't tell me what you're gonna say next, just fucking say it.

Certainly the vast majority of water is not absorbed by plants, but evaporates from the ground or drains off without being used. You can't just ignore that.

iOS, macOS, android and GNOME have massively increased corner radiuses over the last couple of years, so it must be good, right?

You're right. I mis-remembered it.

I see that it applies styles to markdown documents, but keeps all formatting characters visible (e.g. # for titles). I guess I wasn't happy with that and looked for another solution.

TextEdit.app supports printing, so does Notepad.exe (unless they removed that recently).

> any program that supports printing

Unfortunately printing support seems to go out of fashion, at least in macOS land.

Lately I needed a quick printout of a markdown document. I could have used TextEdit for the raw text, but I wanted the styling too. Learned that neither VSCode, Xcode nor Obsidian can print. (There is a community plugin for Obsidian.)

Then why bother installing a different OS?
