Tobias, creator of SN Pro here. Most sans-serif fonts are not designed with Markdown in mind. The asterisks are too small and high, backticks are not noticeable, and combining different symbols such as for footnotes looks off. Here's a comparison for you between Nunito and SN Pro: https://my.supernotes.app/share/iron+junior+degree+doctor
Extending this with additional ligatures and arrows makes this typeface more ideal for reading and editing quickly.
Thank you. This is the specific answer I was looking for.
Small note: on that link the footnote syntax is wrong (unless Supernotes uses their own specific syntax) in that it should be [^Footnote] (caret inside the brackets).
Aha that's just an inline footnote, we support both in Supernotes. So you can quickly write ^[Name of Reference] (that will auto assign it the number 1 once rendered) rather than [^1] ... [1]: Name of Reference.
