We need to split the web into documents and apps, in my opinion.

We still don't have a standard HTML text editor, instead relying on hundreds of Incompatible WYSIWYG editors which all produce custom output, or worse (much, much worse) the abomination that is MarkDown. Every browser should be an editor which all produce standardized output.

In 2023, we're still relying on asterisk, hash marks and underscores to format text, while simultaneously being able to run full fledged audio editors. It's ridiculous.
