When authoring MD/X, so many things are powered by the unified ecosystem. In this tiny example:
→ Link path completion
→ Convert regular links to reference links
→ Sort & dedupe link definitions
...inside directives and JSX. Go nuts 😃

Anything else? What bothers you most?

I am looking for a full-time job.
Being independent in open source for 3.5+ years has been wonderful. I've gotten done most of the high-level goals I wanted to, and miss having people & structure around me.

There’s something especially irritating in watching companies profit off your work without contributing a dime.
