I tried it and it looks really nice but like most of these it has too many small editing thorns for me to use. Two I noticed right away

- ctrl-a works to go to start of line but for some reason ctrl-e doesn't work to go to end

- ``` doesn't start a code block, you have to use 'insert code block'

Good job on paste image from clipboard though which is another feature that I think is completely essential for something like this and weirdly missing in many of them.

``` should definitely start a code block! I do it all the time, and also just tried it now. Can you try again or tell me what you see? Simply nothing happening?
ah I see it needs a space. I tried

```[ENTER]

and

```python[ENTER]

and I also assumed there was no code highlighting but I see after I add a code block I can select the language through the UI

```[SPACE] works, but immediately places the cursor below the block where I'm more used to the cursor moving into the block after creation
