God I hope this is real.

It's an experiment I've been trying for about two weeks, now.
I am using whitespace to make written English easier to read.
I put one sentence per line.
Long sentences are broken into multiple lines
    according to natural breaks in the sentences.
(I try to aim for an 80 column width.)
Indentation is used to signal the continuation of a sentence.
Basically, I am treating English like a programmer would treat code.
As an interesting and unexpected corollary,
    the English is much easier to edit, and
    diffs are way cleaner.
(I'm editing this in an external dedicated text editor.)

Do you know of another way to preserve white space?

Because
    it
        preserves
            whitespace.

I still feel a strong pull towards r/worldnews.
c/world@lemmy.world is juuuust not quite as good,
    content-wise.
edit:
    !world@lemmy.world
    Still new to lemmy, lol...
