The editor

Headings, lists, tables, highlights, pictures, mathematics and link cards — and the short list of things that get removed when you save.

The slash menu

Type a forward slash on an empty line and a menu opens with everything you can insert. It is the fastest route to all of it, and you never have to leave the keyboard.

  • Heading and Subheading — the two levels of section break.
  • Bullet list, Numbered list, Quote, Code block, Divider.
  • Image, Image carousel, Image grid.
  • Table.
  • Link card — a preview card built from a pasted address.

Working on text you have selected

Select some words and a small toolbar appears over them: bold, italic, strikethrough, underline, a link, an inline formula, and the highlighter.

The highlighter has five colours — yellow, peach, mint, sky and lavender. In the quieter worldview presets they are drawn as a marker stroke across the baseline rather than a filled block, so a highlighted sentence still reads as a sentence.

Pictures

Drag a picture into the writing, or paste it. It uploads as you keep typing. Several pictures at once become a group you can switch between a carousel and a grid of two, three or four columns.

  1. Drop the pictures where you want them.
  2. Use the controls on the group to choose a carousel, a grid, or separate pictures.
  3. Give each one alt text — it is what a screen reader will read aloud.
Storage limits by plan

What gets removed when you save

sizuq stores the writing, not arbitrary markup. When a drop is saved it is passed through a filter that keeps a known set of elements and discards everything else. Almost nothing you can do in the editor is affected — but if you paste from another site, some of it will not survive.

  • Pictures must be ones you uploaded here. A picture linked from another site is removed, which also means no invisible tracking pixels can be pasted in.
  • Links may point to a web address or an email address, and open in a new tab with the referrer withheld.
  • Colours, fonts and sizes pasted from elsewhere are dropped. The writing takes the reader's chosen presentation instead.
  • Scripts and embedded frames are never kept.
