@ As said, LaTeX can be a bit clunky. One thing that helps a bit is that if you have a single element as argument you can drop the curly braces (they are only needed to define groups). So "\frac{y}{x}" can be written "\frac y x", which is quite a bit nicer.

Some shilling for a tool I kinda like: For quick stuff I really like TeXmacs (which despite the name is not based on TeX, but can export to it if needed) whose wysiwyg math is just a pleasure to use (with some learning curve, obviously). Small features like combining characters: (+- producing ±, @@ producing ∞, @+ producing ⊕, ...), letter+tab for Greek letters, and much more. It actually handles variable spacing nicer than LaTeX since it forces you to add multiplications between stuff (which you would have to do manually in LaTeX through \,). It's really the best of both worlds in terms of beauty and ease of use, it's too bad the program itself can be a bit buggy at times. It can export and import equations written in LaTeX, so it's very possible to edit equations in TeXmacs for inserting in a document if you want that.
Also, the summation places its parameters always above and below the Sigma, rather than using the compact notation when typeset inside a paragraph. The 'd' in 'dx' in the integral is using the same font as the variables, whereas in proper typesetting one should use a different font for operators. Part of the clunkyness of LaTeX can be mitigated using LuaLaTeX, it allows for Unicode characters, that way you can use Greek letters or math operators directly in your text instead of having a list of LaTeX commands at hand all the time. Most special characters can be entered in Vim using the CTRL-K command in insert mode. The ROFF tools were created for typesetting legal documents, so I guess if your math requirements don't exceed those needs you will be fine. For anyone who needs to write a lot of math on the other hand there is no alternative to TeX and its relatives.

Good things 'bout groff: you can dictate the equation and it's going to be valid. no special escape characters, no Capital nonsense like in LaTeX. The big downside: it's somehow a worse language. Unless you actually dictate large amounts of text, the groff/LaTeX is a no-brainer.
It seems fairly nice and simple most of the syntax can be guessed by saying the actual formula out loud in English Though that has its downsides for me, as I'm not a native English speaker. So for example, "over" would be the Binomial coefficient in German But I think I'm gonna stick with the LaTeX-ish math, as I'm just super used to it and it's used fairly often, for example in Markdown.
