The markup is plain markdown, so many people who use GitHub, other wiki software or write technical documentation are used to it.
I agree that there should be some UI that helps with it because sometimes it is a little bit complicated to type it.

We do not outsource anything to anybody else. So many people have made had bad experiences it. The last thing was GitHub which suddenly wasn’t on “the good side”(TM) any more.
We have the resources and plenty of reasons to host this ourselves and therefore will.
