I refuse to use WYSIWYG interfaces to draw diagrams (looking at you confluence!). Mermaid.js (or really any graphing language) it is for me.

Wysiwyg is actually fine, but the underlying graphing language just doesn't seem to be standardized across multiple tools.

I personally find it far quicker to use the visual aid than learning a new syntax etc.
