> Wordpress is past its prime. A nice api based platform will replace it very fast. The whole wp concept is wrong from 2024 perspective, cause much of it is API calls from web already and not PHP/html loads.
I wonder are you very young? People were saying this a decade, even 15 years, ago
I can confirm WordPress felt like it was fundamentally flawed in 2009, yet it amazingly continues to grow in market share.
I think they’ve succeeded by staying stable with minimal large changes for 20 years and maintaining strong backward compatibility. Meanwhile the rest of the web chases the latest technology cycles, where everything needs to be redone every 5 years because there’s a new way to do things.
The developers who make WordPress understand and are pretty empathetic to their audience / user base, and don’t expect them to put in much work to install and maintain their website.
Other technologies seem to almost intentionally create backwards compatibilities in order to set user expectations that, yes you need to put in work to continue use our framework.
Not much younger anymore but still following Wordpress. This time the difference is GPT which writes and modifies html static site as if it was WP render.
