Jira still has two different WYSIWYG implementations on different pages. On the "classic" issue form, you still enter `{code}this is code{code}`, but if you open that issue in the sidebar of the backlog page, it's Markdown.

Luckily I don't have.to use it anymore. It's 2+ years, but my memory wants to tell me that I hated it, because Confluence worked differently than JIRA.

We are using Gitlab now. It's much more limited than JIRA, but for what it does much more coder friendly.

On the topic of the text box, gitlab saves the content if I start typing, get distracted, go somewhere else and come back later. That's handy. Unfortunately there is some inconsistency that it doesn't work everwhere, was it so that in Wiki pages it didn't work?

Oh man, this issue is particularly insidious for my work flow. Like... Why the hell isn't it consistent even across pages within the same project?!?
