What issue do you have?
I have several suggestions, and a few bugs:
1- Table properties reset themselves when I close and reopen the app. They always come back to the dotted line view.
2- Why there is no collapsible sections? Most apps that have markdown style have these collapsible sections.
3- There should be editable text alignment (left-center-right)
4- Fixed photo alignment feature, especially when we want similar height among photos.
5- Editable keyboard shortcuts? I want to add horizontal line by using a keyboard shortcut.
6- The tags bar on the below... Why it's always there? We should be able toggle to close/open it.
7- Items on the toolbar (last three of them) don't show up although there is a room for them. I have to slide the layout a bit to make them shown up. (If you couldn't understand what I meant, I can attach a screenshot below.)
Edit: Please consider these suggestions.

1. I think some of these are inherent limitations with markdown (e.g. the text/photo alignment).
2. I definitely agree about the keyboard shortcuts in the Rich text editor, it's really annoying how basic things like horizontal rule and block quote don't have shortcuts.
There is an "Auto Format Markdown" option which gives you (limited) ability to use markdown formatting in the rich text editor... but presently it's way too limited (e.g. it won't auto-format basic things like block quotes or horizontal rules), I had posted about this here: Impossible to create horizontal rule or block quote via keyboard shortcuts in rich text editor?
There is a change that should add horizontal rule support coming: Desktop: Rich Text Editor: Auto-format "---", "***" and "___" as dividers by personalizedrefrigerator · Pull Request #12397 · laurent22/joplin · GitHub
3. The hidden toolbar icons issue I had reported as a bug here: which icons are shown vs. hidden in overflow menu changes when toggling editors · Issue #12198 · laurent22/joplin · GitHub
It's pretty annoying, and exacerbated by the fact that there are extremely limited keyboard shortcuts in the rich text editor... things like horizontal rule and block quote get shoved into the overflow menu (despite there being plenty of room), and the fact that I also can't use keyboard shortcuts for these makes it even more annoying.
