I don't think they'll ever add underlining natively. The reason it's not in Markdown standards is because it can be confused with links.

And here I thought it was already perfect! Are you able to say yet if it's mostly a visual refresh with a few optional additions, or has the core of the game changed in any way?

Genuine question: how long do we realistically have before those other services are forced to comply too? Isn't the only foolproof option to self host?

To the second point, it seems pretty much impossible to make something coherent that doesn’t have a lot of repeated letters. I think I did pretty well with 27 words. I’m glad I tried it!

It’s obviously not the most economical pangram people have made for Shavian, but I went into it with two goals in mind.
1. Use all 48 letters including compounds (the popular ones I’ve seen just use the main 40).
2. Make it not sound like total nonsense.

I enjoy using Zen quite a bit, but I've been interested to try something with tree-style tabs. It seems like a great productivity boost to be able to see how my tabs are connected to each other.

Have you heard of Quikscript? It was an attempt by Read to improve Shavian specifically for handwriting. Learning one makes it easier to learn the other. It also gives us two new letters for the 'ks' and 'gz' sounds which Shavian lacks.

I experienced this bullshit a few weeks ago as well. Adobe can burn eternally while the rest of us switch to Affinity.

𐑳 has a hard angle which makes it look like a 7. I also think a slight curve in 𐑼 would make it easier to read and help it not look like 𐑩𐑲. Finally, the compound letters plus 𐑞, 𐑔 take up way more width than their neighbors which makes the balance of words that use them feel off.

I'm happy to give my two cents if it helps! The biggest issue for me was how similar 𐑤, 𐑮 are to 𐑱, 𐑲. For example on line 3 of the back cover there's the word 'lie' which to my eyes literally looks like the same character mirrored and it took longer than it should have to parse.
