Review Summary

Markdown Here is widely appreciated for enabling markdown formatting in Gmail and other email clients, making email composition easier and more visually appealing. Many users find it indispensable for writing reports and including code blocks. However, issues such as it ceasing to work in Gmail for some, lack of LaTeX support, UI bugs like cursor repositioning, and performance concerns with memory and CPU usage have been reported repeatedly. Despite occasional reports of installation confusion or false advertising claims, the extension remains a valuable tool for markdown users in email contexts.
