NetNewsWire 6.2b4 for Mac
- Changed Markdown behavior — it now prefers source:markdown, when present, over description and content:encoded, and renders the Markdown as HTML and uses it as the article body
- Added a dotted underline to links in the Sepia theme, to make links more visible
NetNewsWire 6.2b3 for Mac
- Added support for source:markdown to the RSS parser. Markdown is stored in the database. When an article doesn’t already have HTML content, the Markdown will be rendered as HTML. (Note: anyone reading this in October 2025 almost surely does not have any source:markdown elements in their feeds, so this won’t affect you — though that may change in the future.
