Thanks! Just in case it isn’t clear, geojson.io is from the same folks (okay, folk, me) as Placemark. My hope with Placemark is to keep maintaining it and improving it, while unfortunately geojson.io has been untouched for a few years.

What everyone else has said about why there are so few new cleanroom browsers. If you're looking for one of the few examples that isn't based on Blink, Gecko, or WebKit, it's Flow. https://www.ekioh.com/flow-b
