Mise en forme de texte enrichi (WYSIWYG)

I just saw an interview with Michael Pryor of trello: At one point he says: We added markdown in Trello which in retrospect, was a mistake because it’s a developer centric feature in a non developer focused product. We overcame it by adding guidance on how to use markdown within the app, but users sometimes still get confused. I’m curious to know what the feeling out there is about the use of markdown in Discourse. Am I the only one who thinks discourse would appeal to many more people i…

If you would like to fund it, contact us directly. Another way to look at it — this is like saying I prefer MySQL, can’t you guys just switch your database from Postgres to MySQL?
