Description
SimpleMDE is unmaintained and in my opionion very bloated for what it does. It ships with a full version of CodeMirror (a code editor) embedded which enables markdown syntax highlight in the editor, but I think its a neglible feature that is mostly unnecessary as comments are meant to be viewed in rendered mode primarily.
I suggest we switch to a plain <textarea>
like the ones Github and Gogs use. Some buttons to insert pre-generated snippets at the cursor can be provided. Emoji can be supported via :token:
to Unicode replacement or directly as Unicode as always. Image-based custom emoji can not render in it, but they may in the rendered view (thought Unicode should be preferred).
