I recognize that I am not normal and this doesn't contradict your assumption, but I use Emacs' fill command to hard-wrap long lines at ~80 characters when I'm writing Markdown. In fact, it's so habitual for me that it causes me problems when writing Gemtext. I keep meaning to disable filling in gemini-mode.

I think this is pretty normal. Some people like to put linebreaks after every sentence/clause, which makes diffs much more convenient.
