I believe OP means a WYSIWYG editor is much better than Markdown.

In terms of a markup language in pure text, I think Markdown is your best bet. Folks in CommonMark.org tries to "standardize" Markdown. Our implementation in Twincl.com follows that standard as much as we can.

Appreciate the reply. Honestly though, this confuses me even more. Many sites have both Markdown and a rich editor.. isn't that sort of required for users anyway? No matter what language powers your Markup, at the end of the day many users want an editor.
