Separating Style From Content

2021-01-25T21:21

As a continuation of fixing the heading structure¹ of this capsule, I've titleized the headings properly.

In my opinion, using lower-case titles imposes my choice of style upon my readers — a responsibility that really should be delegated to the client.

Sometimes the presentation is equally important to the content, for example Konpeito.² But here, presentation doesn't matter much so I will aim to present content in a more regular way like following the generally accepted rules of English. (I'm not a good writer so despite my effort, expect me to regularly get those rules wrong).

Some may argue that if you want more control over the presentation, then plaintext may be more suitable than Gemtext. I don't have a strong opinion myself of that, I only know that I want remove my hands from more of the presentation.
