The topic of the visual editor has already been raised in the comments, but, in my opinion, requires a separate discussion. Of course it’s not difficult to type tags, but when I type tag A, just to put a link, I feel like a robot, javascript, Word, etc.
Fresh WYSIWYG editors work under all modern browsers and are flexibly customizable. They can simply “cling” to an existing textbox via javascript, and for all old and mobile browsers a simple textbox will remain.
I know two of the most advanced editors:
For a long time I did not see alternatives to FCKeditor, but now TinyMCE has advanced a lot and seems more preferable.
So I do not see any obstacles (neither ideological, nor technical) for using the visual editor on Habr when writing habratopiks.
