What Hacker News says

To clarify why WHATWG exists and why W3C lost power over the HTML spec: Around 2004 W3C abandoned organizational effort on HTML in favor of things like XHTML2, XEvents, semantic web, etc. The WHATWG was formed in reaction to that, rewriting HTML completely from its W3C HTML 4.0 version for example to make it better for web applications and to specify things in more detail. Since the formation of WHATWG, W3C HTML specs became copy-pastes (often not even correct copy-pastes) in an effort to satisfy paying member companies (https://github.com/w3c/charter-html/issues/14#issuecomment-1...). You can see everything WHATWG maintains here: https://platform.html5.org/ (they are the green question mark) The W3C still maintains a good chunk web standards though, such as CSS, Wasm, web security, etc.
In W3C and the WHATWG sign agreement to collaborate on single version of HTML, DOM
