Sorry, don't count with me. I don't like using on my code symbols I don't have on my keyboard. I still prefer LaTeX for math notation.

For normal text my new hope is Djot, a lighweight markup language by the creator of Pandoc.

For instance, Mathematica is great, we can actually use and see the domain language (which is symbols, subscripts, Greek letters) while coding mathematical formulas instead of weirdly translating everything into English.

I for one would love to see us evolving past ASCII
