*banned 4 MarkDown love* @design_RG@qoto.org

@fluffy @susi123 Ah, thank you, Fluffy!! 👍

And I just worked for a couple hours, soon time for bed.

Completed this tutorial, linked above, and it is VERY good. Well explained, with examples, you enter markdown format until you get it right and it allows you to go on to the next step. (or hit cancel, if you can't figure out why it's not as expected).

After reading and practicing, I needed to work on a real project, and I knew one of my recent Blog posts could use some work -- some of the text was jagged, not right, I had used html markup and was the best I could do at the time.

With some back and forth, I copied the whole post from one blog instance to another, as a Backup so I wouldn't break it (and regret).

Turned out NICE. Finally, the jaggedness is gone. The numbered list is progressing as expected.

AND - the formatting for the lists and headers is much shorter and easier than HTML ones.

Will post here the two, Before and After. so you can see the difference.

Happy and ready to wind down a productive day. Good night, #fedi verse.

🇬🇧 MarkDown language is a simplified form of creating a variety of text styles. Bold, Italicized, Underline, Header (text) sizes, all in much shorter and easier commands than classic HTML Markup language.

Note the name, a play on the HTML variant.

The Interactive MarkDown tutorial is also available in ENGLISH for those who are more comfortable in that language.

See it here: https://www.markdowntutorial.com/

@realcaseyrollins @freemo The Guardian bot is showing on the Home feed. well done, Casey. 👍

@susi123 In that case, the two of you are lucky, for finding love with each other! ❤️

@realcaseyrollins Ah, I see...

Imagined it was some kind of thing, to set a deadline like that. Like you had a ticket to Mars reservation, maybe. 😜

@realcaseyrollins Cool, now what are you expecting to happen in 2026?

Expecting a comet or meteor strike?

If you speak Spanish, there are LESS resources to learn about this and other tech topics.

Found a Blog post here that explains the Basics, in Spanish, and links to another site with an interactive tutorial.

🇪🇸 El lenguaje MarkDown es una forma simplificada de crear una variedad de estilos de texto. Tamaños en negrita, en cursiva, subrayado, encabezado (texto), todo en comandos mucho más cortos y fáciles que el lenguaje de marcado HTML clásico.

Anote el nombre, una reproducción en la variante HTML.

Si habla español, hay menos recursos para aprender sobre este y otros temas tecnológicos.

Encontramos una entrada de blog aquí que explica los conceptos básicos, en español, y enlaces a otro sitio con un tutorial interactivo.

@victorhck Gracias, Victor!

@onatinadresi Excellent.

For those joining or curious about this thread, the lady is a great brazilian Singer.

more info on her About page on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1C8UBSZs5rOPfxuxTMS6OI/about

@onatinadresi She's wonderful indeed. 😺

I could post some of my cool playlists for Bossa Nova and classic MPB (Musica Popular Brasileira), most of it from 60s and 70s vintage.

Best music everywhere seem to have been created in those decades, it's been downhill lately in music scene. Crap abounds.

@onatinadresi A free account there will allow listening to it, although some ads ocassionaly.

Or find it elsewhere, I think you will enjoy her.

@onatinadresi Yes, she was a great singer. Have you heard her daughter singing? Maria Rita, she has albums on Spotify, and is amazingly like Elis.

We were discussing this the other day.

Found in the #fediverse, and I agree.

@realcaseyrollins Wow, that's a long time. Snow fall delays?

@onatinadresi Ah, I see, I find it really interesting that you like the language so much. 😃

The Brazilian spoken version also has some huge variation depending on which region of the country the speaker was from originally.

South is the most European culture part, I hail from there.

@onatinadresi I have an account at a Portuguese speaking instance, but it's low posting volume there, sadly.

would be nice to practice, good for the soul.

Also waiting for a reply from another instance, located in Brazil, and with a more restricted intake due to their server loads.

@onatinadresi I do like it too, do you speak Portuguese?

I have seen some of your newsposts and they seemed to be in Turkish, no?
