> We tolerate Confluence but the fact that the JIRA and Confluence have their own, annoying flavor of markdown, which is different from Bitbucket's flavor

How do they justify this? It trips me up every single working day of my life. The products look identical so all I see is a text box on a white site with blue accents and I inevitably start writing the wrong markdown.

It's got so much worse. Even within JIRA there's 2 different flavours: the backlog preview _new_ updated version, and the old horrid detail issue view version. Annoying doesn't start to describe it.
