TGFM - Thank God for Markdown
Seriously, though. 9 times out of 10, markdown has all the formatting I need for the task at hand. On the rare occasion I need something more, I’m glad I have access to Apple Pages, but it comes with its own set of unique challenges.

I miss the Steve Jobs era of iWork.
I won’t say it was the best (why were there no pivot tables in numbers?? And why is the current implementation shit requiring manual refreshes that you can’t rely on?), but the software worked very uniformly and was straight forward.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Typst over Latex (if one does not depend on exclusive Latex packages).
The syntax makes sense, it is powerful and the compiler is fast.

I thought Typst looked interesting, I just have too many years of LaTex mental patterns and Vim shortcuts to be bothered to try it. I’ve suggested Typst to a couple of friends who later said,“thanks.”
