Hey Brad, thanks for the post. I'm a markdown fan as well, and just starting to get going with Substack. I don't use [Notion](https://www.notion.so/), but do use [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) and use both markdown and vim-mode (woot!).
To get my markdown into Substack, I've found an easy workflow:
Hey thanks for this, am in the process of moving over to Substack and I'm a big Obsidian supporter. Was going to used Marked2 after I found this but also just realized that you can now do "Paste from Markdown" in a Google Doc and copying from that to Substack also works!
I needed this comment to spark the right flow for me!
I do a similar process out of Ulysses HTML preview. Unfortunately if creates footnotes that don't have the lovely click-back-to-where-you-came-from feature that Substack generates. Hand repairing them is a bit troublesome. Wondering if there is a pandoc fix that someone has developed!

[Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) -> open in [Marked 2](https://marked2app.com/) (awesome app by [Brett Terpstra](https://brettterpstra.com/)) -> copy from there into Substack and formatting links etc work well.
Directly using `Copy as HTML` in Obsidian also works without anything else.
Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for the tip. I'm a markdown and Obsidian mega-fan and have been scratching my head about copying into Substack. Much appreciated.
I am using Obsidian. If you switch to reading view, then copy and paste the text, it will format the headings correctly into Substack.
yeah :) and no additional tools needed
Thanks for the insight. I love writing in Markdown, the Substack editor is so...limiting.
If you're using Obsidian, just use the Export to PDF command, copy/paste from the exported PDF.

And now it's 2025!!...
