There are a couple I have in mind. Like many techies, I am a huge fan of RSS for content distribution and XMPP for federated communication.

The really niche one I like is S-expressions as a data format and configuration in place of json, yaml, toml, etc.

I am a big fan of Plaintext formats, although I wish markdown had a few more features like tables.

    I fixed it for you (markdown tables support padding to make them easy to read):

    markdown table
    x y
    |markdown|table|
    |--------|-----|
    |x       |y    |
