Djot: A light markup language by the creator of Pandoc and CommonMark
I can’t imagine the intended audience being so wide as to include a goal of “replacing Markdown as the default on GitHub.”
Instead, this project appeals to me as someone who’s already “bought in” to the pandoc ecosystem. Pandoc makes it really easy to write filters[1] and to take the same source file to generate web pages[2], Reveal.js presentations, Beamer presentations, and long-form PDFs[3]. As someone who writes most things in Markdown compiled via pandoc, I see the cracks in the edges all too often, but I’m too stubborn to give up markdown or any of the tools I’ve built up around pandoc and pandoc markdown. I could absolutely see there come a day where I find some last straw where I can’t get done with pandoc Markdown what I need to get done, and djot seems like it would at least be a contender. I’m sure there are many pundits here would chime in and say “just use Asciidoc,” but every time I look at a syntax quick reference, I get about halfway down the page before thinking “nah, this looks too foreign, I don’t want something that diverges this far from Markdown.”
Djot deviates in annoying ways from Markdown, but not as many and so it’d be an easier pill to swallow for the narrow audience of people like me who want something mostly similar to Markdown that works well with pandoc and avoids the most common syntactic oddities of Markdown.

Beautifying Org Mode in Emacs (2018)
My main authoring tool is then Emacs Markdown Mode (https://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/). For data entry, it comes with some bells and whistles similar to org-mode, like C-c C-l for inserting links etc.
I seldom export my notes for external usage, but if it is the case, I use lowdown (https://kristaps.bsd.lv/lowdown/) which also comes with some nice output targets (among the more unusual are Groff and Terminal). Of cource pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does a very good job here, too.

Show HN: I made a tool to clean and convert any webpage to Markdown
This is one of those things that the ever-amazing pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does very well, on top of supporting virtually every other document format.

LaTeX makes me so angry at word
Folks feel the same way about Markdown versus LaTeX: why use something significantly more complicated where a looser, human-readable grammar works better?
For any other situations, I use https://pandoc.org/, or, generate a Word doc scriptomatically.

Launch HN: Onedoc (YC W24) – A better way to create PDFs
Congrats on the launch, I guess, but there are so many free options that I can't think of a situation where paying $0.25 per document would be justified...? Just to name a few:
Back in the days, I used to use XSL-FO [0] and it was okay. It was not very precise but it rarely if ever broke, and was perfectly integrated with an XML/XSLT solution. Yeah, this was a long time ago.
Last month I used html-to-pdfmake [1] and it's also not very precise and more fragile, but very efficient and fast.
Yet another approach would be to pro grammatically generate .rtf files (for example) and use Pandoc [2] to produce PDFs (I have not tried this in production but don't see why it wouldn't work).

Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
Others have mentioned static site generators. I like Hakyll [1] because it can tightly integrate with Pandoc [2] and allows you to develop custom solutions if your needs ever grow.

Show HN: CLI for generating beautiful PDF for offline reading
Have you compared it with a conversion by pandoc (https://pandoc.org/)?

Pandoc
I have used it to kickstart a blogging project that I wish to come back to soon. The Lua inter-op for custom readers, writers and filters is great but I wish there was more editor integration and even perhaps an official IDE/editor with built-in debugging features (probably something already do-able with Emacs but I haven't checked). The only blocker for my project is no support for "ChunkedDoc" for Lua filters [1] which forces me to write more code and a complicated Makefile.
