Why markdown everywhere, don't we have better markup languages?

[detaro]

Do we? Recently looked into that and it didn't seem like there is something clear-cut superior, sadly...

Asciidoc seems superior to me at least.

IIRC Dokuwiki wasn't too bad either.

Standard Markdown used to lack some important constructs, again IIRC.

Really? What are they?

Markdown seems perfect for this case where the markup is the rendered content.
