For some time we've seen that QuillJS editor, the WYSIWYG editor that we use in the backend and also in the frontend, is not well maintained. Some examples:
Last year we planned to migrate to Trix Editor (#7289), but after studying all the effort that this migration could take (see #7585), we postpone that.
Through financing by the Decidim Association, we'll tackle this for the next release.
Legacy
Mind that as we're talking about a really integrated library inside Decidim, so there are lots of files and features (like File uploads, Videos iframes, Mentions, Hashtags, Character counter) that need to be migrated also:

When I go to the editor
Then I don't see any feature missing, comparing it with the same editor in v0.27
