✨ I found out ~50% of my support tickets on remoteok.com were about Markdown issues:
- non-tech people don't understand it
- format is inconsistent
- buggy if complex like * a list with **bold text**
So I now switched to TinyMCE which is HTML: tiny.cloud
We tried many other #tools and we finally decided to go with @tinymce, simply because you're the best.
I'm beginning to love @tinymce more and more. Been exploring its features since morning...
Thanks! I tried many other tools - all open-source and came to the conclusion that many people may disagree with.
I decided to go with TinyMCE not because it's open-source but because they have a commercial license what may mean they will fix bugs and add great features faster.
