I’ve seen a lot of apps extend markdown to support various additional features. Obsidian, for example, has an extensive number of community plugins which offer a ton of features.

This of course ends up being editor specific, but if org has the same limitation, by being tied to emacs, is it really any different? I think what emacs has going for it in this case is that it’s been around for decades, and we can assume it will continue to be around for decades into the future. The markdown editor de jour may not be.

Yeah, that's my thinking with these tools. I think it needs to be more of a standard.

Either Markdown++ or Org Lite. I'll take either :) I'm not a fan of coupling formats and tools tightly.
