I have moved over to Svbtle

http://nothingbutsnark.svbtle.com/

While Medium’s WYSIWYG editor is rather nice, it just isn’t designed for code samples (e.g. there is no way to do <code> tags inline, only block-level <pre> tags). And for someone like me who writes code-heavy blog posts on occasion, it killed it for me.

Not to say Svbtle is perfect. While the Markdown support is great and even supports some GitHub Extensions (e.g. ```…``` code blocks), Svbtle doesn’t auto-save and the Google+ support isn’t as good so as to tie into Google+authorship. But the ability to simply use Markdown is enough to make me switch.

So the new blog is at http://nothingbutsnark.svbtle.com/ . I have emailed the Planet Python folks to update my feed, but I know they get quite busy so it might be a week before it gets updated. And for those of you who follow me on Google+ or Twitter, you should know that I have moved my ghost.io posts over to Svbtle as well.
