The plugin ecosystem is full of freemium garbage. It’s also designed so a functional site basically requires the jetpack plugin, which is a connector to automattic’s proprietary SaaS.
The codebase is old, like mostly procedural PHP. It’s got a long history of security issues, and is just a pain to work with. And it’s run by a megalomaniac who doesn’t seem to understand what running an open source project is about.
What is your problem with WordPress? Isn’t it part of the fediverse and entirely open source?

Interesting. Is there other open source website creator software that is also part of the fediverse?
I am trying all fedi software and WordPress is last on that list. So I am happy about recommendations
There’s a bunch of forks of it that are basically the same. Not sure how it works with fediverse stuff.
