I’ve grown to like Markdown for writing blog posts. The one limitation I see is the lack of a strike-through. Strike through is often very useful in getting just the right amount of snark in a post.

I think you just use the tilde symbol around the text you want to strike. Let’s see if this works.

@fgtech Hmm. Maybe not! What about only one?

That is supposed to do it so maybe it’s not part of the subset supported on Micro.blog.

@fgtech Good idea and nice try. Thank you. The execution of the inventor of Markdown will proceed at dawn.
