Blip-A··on Ask HN: Lightweight markup language with an open-source WYSIWYG editor?
You are correct, I was using proper in a highly subjective/opinionated way. It's just that I would prefer lists to be wrapped and indented the same way they would be in a rendered document, as I will only be reading these notes in my editor.

Am I wrong? To clarify, I'm not looking for a Markdown editor with a preview pane. I'd want to see proper soft wrapping in the editor pane itself.

Edit: I also want the line to to be indented past the number or bullet, e.g:

Right:

1. first line of text

   second line of text
Wrong:

1. first line of text

second line of text

I agree, HTML does seem like what I'm looking for, except I don't want to edit the tags directly. I really just want an editor that displays headings, bulleted and numbered lists, and hyperlinks, without forcing me to deal with soft vs. hard wrapping issues (on the Markdown / basic text editor end of the spectrum) or styles (on the Libreoffice end of the spectrum).

I assume it suffers from the same issues as the other Markdown editors I've tried, particularly failure to soft wrap list items to the appropriate level of visual indentation.

> The only realistic way to get long term software support on Android is from Open Source. This means installing a replacement, 3rd party Open Source ROM.

What ROM do you use and what level of support does it provide? I was interested in third-party ROMs until I read this part of the GrapheneOS FAQ[1]:

> GrapheneOS can only fully provide security updates to a device provided that the OEM is releasing them. When an OEM is no longer providing security updates, GrapheneOS aims to provide harm reduction releases for devices which only have a minimum of 3 years support. [...] Harm reduction releases do not have complete security patches because it's not possible to provide full security updates for the device without OEM support and they are intended to buy users some limited time to migrate to a supported device.

So, what exactly do people mean when they claim that third-party ROMs provide "long-term" support? Do they just allow older phones to run newer versions of Android, albeit without full security updates?
