Welcome back. Your GTD config got me started with Org years back :)

Markdown is not a single standard. There are several variations of the
syntax. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown

We support the most basic "vanilla" markdown in ox-md.el. But Github
uses its own flavour, which we do not export to. In particular, vanilla
markdown allow direct HTML fragments, which are disabled in
GitHub/Reddit/many other websites for security reasons. Instead, they
invent new markdown constructs that are explicitly supported. But there
are numerous Markdown syntax extensions - it is hard to support them
unless we have a dedicated maintainer.
