Review HackMD?

HackMD is praised for its effective collaboration and clean documentation capabilities, especially for Markdown users. It integrates well with tools like Obsidian, Neovim, and VSCode. Users appreciate its simplicity and new design, though some desire better export options and a more modern UI. However, there are concerns about its buggy comment feature, unreliable advanced search, and poor customer support, with some users experiencing issues with account management and billing. Overall, HackMD is valued for its core functionality but has room for improvement.

The best for working with Markdown collaboratively. I integrated my Obsidian, Neovim and VSCode with it.

HackMD is great for quick collaboration and clean documentation. I often use it to outline community SOPs before pushing to Notion. Would love better export options and a slightly more modern UI, but overall it gets the job done.

I used HackMd for months in my work, my email account associated with the service went through a migration process but the same email was kept, all other services were migrated correctly and I had no problems, except HackMd which for some reason created a new ID and overwritten my old account with a new account. The result is that I lost all my important documents. I contacted support and got no response. I have currently migrated to another service, do not trust the security of their cloud service

It's a decent editor most of the time. The comment feature is buggy garbage and it's been that way for years so don't expect it to change. I paid for a year of service to get the advanced search and that doesn't work right either. They autobilled me for another year and refused to give me a refund and cancel after 1 day (for a yearly subscription!). Broke-ass mindset, amateur company, app isn't progressing, avoid if possible.
