This seems to me like commodification of affection, or an attempt to "disrupt" the deathly loneliness of late-stage capitalism.

I think the answer to this question has to do with his previously featured blog post: "I'm going to work full-time on free software" :)

PD's API is superior as well.

I've never seen that before, it looks pretty cool. Thanks for sharing.

Both GitHub and GitLab have built in wiki systems that support Markdown. They also support editing them in a proper editor and using git for revision control.

That said, these solutions are probably geared more towards developers, whereas in a conventional organization, many people (i.e. business folk) usually prefer a browser based solution that provides a similar experience to that of a word processor.

I never liked Confluence, but seeing as the Atlassian suite has become the de-facto industry standard, it's hard to beat its integration advantages with JIRA and such. Better a sucky single source of truth than a disparate array of wonderful solutions.

Also I think the latest versions with the UI lift are pretty good (and they support Markdown finally).
