Well it matters for everything but the rendering engine. Some browsers have extensions, others don’t. Some have poor usability like Chrome and others like Arc work way better.

The default web interface is very poorly designed and looks uninviting. Sure, there are great alternative interfaces but people will be turned off before they could check them out. Also, it's usually the first thing you see when someone's sharing a link.

There not being an official app is also something that will confuse non-tech users.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. The only time I use the power button is when there is an issue which has been like 4 times in 3 years maybe? I think people complaining about the power button location have never worked with macOS and are used to shittier standby in other operating systems.

People really seemed to like this site I made a while ago and it performs well. But really any Wordpress site can be built well if with something like ACF and a custom coded theme.

While there are quite a few agencies and solo devs that click their sites together using crap like Elementor and a bunch of no name plugins that could often be replaced by a single line of code, there are also people building building clean maintainable sites with it.

That said, I usually don’t pick it for my projects. Kirby CMS is a much more flexible alternative. For anything more complex there’s Laravel with Filament to build a nice admin panel.

That would be great but the reality is that client’s mindsets need to change. I tried to explain to a client that Wordpress is not a good fit for their complex web application and yet they didn’t wanna switch to anything else. People are way too worried about new tech and wanna stick with whatever they know, even if it causes massive problems.

Yeah but it has also been 2 full years since he bought it

Things just don’t get buried the way they do on Reddit. On Reddit I often didn’t comment on something if it was slightly older because nobody would see my comment anyway. Here it’s a completely different story. Sometimes I still get replies after like a week.

Depending on what kind of content you’re into, you could try browsing through nebula‘s offerings. They’re sorted by categories and most of it is high-quality content.

You cannot watch the videos there without a subscription but almost all of the creators have YouTube channels too.

The serial port made a really good video about it recently. This channel is pretty amazing for early internet content.

Short term profit is all they care about until this platform crashes down completely
