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

@Saederup92 @freemo ...Or India.

Yes, those two are really in a different league, was just writing to an Indian friend this morning and mentioned that.

Huge population, very difficult.

@chikara Thank you Chikara, another great post.

I love the Great Wave gravure, so beautiful.

I made a blog post of your previous post here about it, have you seen it?

I am learning to use Write.freely blog instance and enjoying it a lot.

#MarkDown language is a new thing I am learning and starting to use.

Last night I posted a topic here about a MarkDown tutorial, which is available in English, Spanish and French. Took a couple hours later to do it and was impressed.

Very, very well done, simple and demonstrates the commands to format text by explaining them, giving you an area to type in and format text with a preview window besides.

Spent more time after and edited a whole Blog post I had made, formatted with HTML Markup language and which was not kosher yet.

Resulted in a much cleaner and prettier page.

I just copied the revise Blog post here to Discourse forums : https://discourse.qoto.org/t/qoto-moderator-nomination-process-my-personal-thoughts-and-notes-on-user-participation/143

This one is set on Public view, can be checked anonymously.

The previous edition is on the Moderation area, and can be seen by logged in users only, not anonymous, but it's here if you want to compare: https://discourse.qoto.org/t/qoto-moderator-nomination-process-notes/117/5

@mngrif Oh, I do hope you are right!

@Saederup92 @freemo Imagine governing a country that large.

Siberian Railroad even crosses it east to West, a major undertaking to buid it.

@mngrif ...assuming the /sarcarsm tag was implied?

@Saederup92 @freemo Yes, it's a large continent.

We have 3.5 time zones here in Canada. Many more in EU I imagine. Russia then, they have 11 or 12 of them, mind boggling size, their country.

@Saederup92 @freemo Good afternoon, soon to be good evening in EU time. 😄

Woke hours earlier but had a serious backup on my penpals correspondence, so concentrated on clearing some of it. Better now. 😜

@shibaprasad You are very welcome. 😺

@shibaprasad Yes, there are some, not as many as there are mastodon ones.

And what they offer does vary. I had seelected Wordsmith.social at first, since they are open for new accounts, have a number of users and are likely to stick around (very small ones, who knows?). And -- they also allow 10 Blogs per user account.

so you could separate things into different blogs, 2 or 3 as needed.

Avoids a confusing mix of family, travel, fediverse, photos, etc all in one stream.

I wanted it, but could not see if to follow via Fediverse.

so I kept looking, and found Tedomum.net, which DID work when tested (I used eh same test, short first blog page. Copied between tabs, from one that has page, to an empty new one. Hit save, see how it looks.)

Rigth now they both seem to be working.

And -- one of the new things today was MarkDown language. I found a tutorial, read and tried it as it's interactive.

Then, practice and ended up with a Better version of a complex post, with numbered lists, bullets, I couldn't get it perfect before.

Now it is 🆗 -- and I am happy.

I posted a message on the MarkDown tutorial thread with links to the before and after.
