i really wish spacemacs didn't have that pretty lame loading screen, as a spacevim devotee i found alot of things that spacemacs does that specifically address some issues i have with spacevim.

i know the correct path forward here is, of course, diving into the guts of spacevim and tinkering until it works for me, but i will post one quirk as it will probably be some time before i will be able to write my own comprehensive plugin:

the hugofy/markdown plugins seem to all do this awful thing in which they render the markdown on the fly. it's kinda neat for basic text formatting, but my god it is an utter nightmare if you have any sort of URL's or images, because the second you key in that second bracket, it suddenly dissapears and you're left having to basically guess your way through the process of typing the url and closing out the shortcode.

if someone knows of a markdown editor that plays nice, i'd love to see it. hope im not overlooking something painfully obvious here

anyways, i picked a hell of a time to dive into the commandline, a year ago i came across scoop/chocolatey and quickly discovered WSL, and thanks to a phenomenal amount of work by some great folks (even you, Person Reading This), my desktop is not much more than the lobby i pass through before going to where the magic happens: https://imgur.com/a/iCpWZAC

What about the loading screen do you dislike? I believe you can change the default after it loads up(and you generally want to be using a daemon in the background with Emacs so it’s a first time run thing mainly anyway)
