Can you elaborate, please? How do you use latex, images and cross-links in markdown?

As others have mentioned:
* $$2^n$$ for latex, renders fine on all browsers
* ![]() for images
* []() for links, including cross-links
** The link syntax is [<text to link>](<link path>), so for example [this is a link](http://google.com)
** Markdown ## Headers have an anchor with their name (e.g. `#Headers`), so you can cross-reference any other
section of any other note in the git repo by just using [see this section](./path/to/other/note.md#that-section)
cross-links is supported by some editing tools. (For example I use MacDown it does that.) It is not part of the MD spec. I do not use org-mode, but I know it well enough to admit it is unbeatable.
I can also read them from everywhere, and markdown renders super nicely.
I take markdown over org-mode everyday. I used to use org-mode 15 years ago, but today that's pointless for me.
