Perhaps this is why LyX becomes less relevant every year.
I don't think that peer-reviewed academic publication is going to vanish anytime soon; and, over about the last decade, I've observed journals continuing to transition from accepting manuscripts in the form of Word .DOCs and the like to insisting upon LaTeX files. LyX is the best WYSIWY_ editor that I've found for creating such files. That has made it of _increasing_ relevance, though its relevance may be alien to your particular purposes. A WYSIWY_ editor may some day be published that is of more general purpose and still able to generate decent LaTeX. But, until that time, or until academic publishers begin moving away from LaTeX, LyX will hold its relevance very nicely.
