Explanation:
-Markdown supports 6 headings while gemtext only supports 3. Markdown headings 1-3 (\#, \#\#, \#\#\#) map to their respective gemtext heading. Markdown headings 4-6 (\#\#\#\#, \#\#\#\#\#, \#\#\#\#\#\#) map to the level 3 (\#\#\#) gemtext heading. This flattening is also reflected in the HTML through the CSS styling.

+Alternate syntax for Markdown headings including == and -- is not supported. Only number signs \(\#\) may be used.

Dashes (\-), asterisks (\*), and plus signs (\+) can all be used to represent line items. For compatibility, use only flat lists containing no other elements.

-Links in Markdown map to link lines in gemtext. The gemtext renderer does not recognize angle bracketed URLs nor reference-style links. It only recognizes links that have link text enclosed in brackets (e.g. \[Arch Linux\]), immediately followed by the URL in parenthesis (e.g. (archlinux.org)).
