I honestly got reminded of this by this post and I've been interchangeably using different editors on the network. I'd love to know what the status of the stacks editor is, and what future plans on it are.

The plan had been to depreciate the 'classic' old editor for a new one. I recall there were good reasons, and practically, there's some aspects to the new editor that are handy for people used to 'classic' forums and not thinking in markdown.

Currently there's 3 different editors across the SE/SO ecosystem, the 'old' editor we're used to, the stacks editor as is used on answers here, and the slightly different (and inferior) single pane only teams editor.

I like the new editor - it was painless enough of a switch I didn't notice I got switched out but I appreciate the option to switch between markdown only and rich text mods, or the classic 2 pane mode.

In the interests of avoiding duplication of work, and easier maintenance - and (hoping this didn't get lost in the shuffle) I'm curious to the state of the newer stacks editor and what're the plans on this going forward?
