Some types of content might take days to research or work on and might not have the audience to allow monetization by ads . mitra exists for those types of things and is open source unlike this project (it seems).

seems fairly simple , some form of XML? that gives you a schema that can be used to check the file and a rich software ecosystem of writers and parsers. Speaking of consensus based standards its also a standard way to store data.
I would not worry too much about encryption, i use gocryptfs which gives me a encrypted folder where i store my notes in org-mode (there is also gui software for this). the encrypted notes could be some encrypted folder and some sort of standardized encryption (or maybe the encryption type specified in the metadata?)
Growth have been fairly organic . number of contributors grew by 28 percent this year. there are a lot of users so given that a percent of them will do some form of advocacy that will probably lead to more users and there will be a relatively large amount of people saying they adopted it.
A standard name for a open source project \s
the extension could cease to exist, but you can absolutely still access your notes with any text editor decades from now. I still don’t get where the “non-future proof” here. Can’t really be more future proof than a simple text file.
Yeah but his kinda turns into a "programmers user interface" that will drastically reduce the usability. As time go by they could add more and more extensions that could make using it in a text editor harder to and harder (my cognitive bandwidth could be used for better things then monitoring that situation).
Arguably, open document format, although standardized, are harder to open and manage because it’s far more complex than a text file that ends with .md.
It does a lot more then .md . The structure of incentives will make it usable for a very long time if not forever (there is a lot of content in it, and having it standardized means organisations are more likely to use it). it has also passed the test of time by existing for 19 years. foam is less then 4 years old as far as i can tell.
Yeah but as far as i can tell it still has extensions (see this) , there is no process including RFC where a standard is ratified like ISO/ECMA does for stuff like HTML/javascript/C++ or the open document format. i have some stuff that is more then a decade old that really don't want to lose.
iirc yes, there was actually a link on every issue opened (see example), it was on bountysource which eventually died and iirc it was at a time where lemmy was not nearly as popular.
I suggest you to use something like a git repository + vscode + foam (https://github.com/foambubble/foam).
It's not that future proof, it is using non standard extensions to markdown from what i can tell, so other software would not work with it . The most future proof alternative is creating some standard that is the result of a consensus among multiple implementations (maybe by enhancing common mark? but that seems like the wrong place).
good is the enemy of excellent. X11 works for most users (almost all the users?) well. You can see that with the adoptions of other standards like the C++ standards and IPV6 which can feel like forever.
Another thing I think one of the X11 maintainers mentioned iirc is that they have been fairly gentle with deprecation. some commercial company could have deprecated X11 and left you with a wayland session that is inferior in some ways.

gocryptfs is very fast for me. i have a file with about 5600 lines and i detect no difference when opening it under encryption and not under encryption. but in gocryptfs each file is encrypted separately . so you could get some information about the directory structure. but the name of the files and folders is encrypted ("archive" for example turns into something like "AaL6P86WWMnqQkMYnsRBXg").
