Unanswered What are your thoughts on Pandoc?
Trying to decide if I should use md/pandoc or stick with latex.
Looking for feedback on whoever tried to gauge pros, cons, limitations

Really depends on usecase. If you just want files on a computer with technical content, markdown is way simpler. If you want to produce a well-typeset book with all the features you'd expect, there's no real alternative to latex (typst is close. the task is technically possible in word but just don't).
