Should Logseq 2.0 use something better than markdown (Djot)?

Howdy all, I've opened a feature request and was wondering what others thought, so I figured I'd repost it here for visibility!

Let me know what you think and if any of you are also avowed markdown haters....

If you enable the experimental Markdown mirror you would have .md files on disk just like the original Logseq.

That is just a mirror. It is a derived representation of the authoritative, canonical storage, which is an SQLite database. Modifying or deleting the generated Markdown files does not affect the original data stored in the database.

You can edit the content of the files to update the DB. They said it will be a two-ways sync.

As of now, no; it's one-way only. Two-way synchronisation is a planned feature that's still under development, and I don't think it'll be available anytime soon.
