Is there any reason I shouldn’t copy all my old blogs from medium to paragraph? Any pros/cons to think about? Don’t really feel like self hosting, but that might change sometime in the future.

Hi, quick question about Paragraph: Is it possible to write Markdown? My biggest complaint about most blogging and publishing platforms is they force me to use fancy WYSIWYG editors which create tons of extra work and prevent me from importing all my old Markdown content. So I keep writing Markdown on Jekyll.

We support a subset of markdown (eg ## -> headers, * -> bulletpoints), but not full markdown. We used to support it but it was technically very challenging to maintain the support when migrating to a more robust, newer editor

Ok. I understand the technical constraints. Just please keep in mind there are people who like to focus on writing content rather than assembling legos in online editors. Also, I generally don't trust platforms where I can't easily export my content in a reusable form.

(I made the mistake a long time ago of starting a blog in Squarespace and it was such a pain to migrate out. In particular for any posts that contained images, code, or other complex content. Basically, these days I don't trust any document format that I can't feed into pandoc.)

You can export your content at any time, in HTML format. You can also choose to store each post on Arweave, so no export needed to archive it
