Oh I’m aware. In a way the plugin ecosystem is also one of the biggest issues with wordpress, it’s full of freemium garbage that violates the spirit and in many cases the letter of the GPL.

But the point is that if you want a complete replacement for wordpress, it isn’t just a blogging system you have to replicate. You also have to in some way replicate a forum, form builders, activitypub, an e-commerce system, calendar, booking system, SEO, page caching, ERP, CRM, etc.

Honestly coding a replacement wouldn’t be difficult, there’re already a few alternatives out there, it’s the thousands of plugins you’d need to replace.

One of the issues with alternatives like ghost is not having a good plugin system.

Although it was originally snigs, which is an old English word for eel.

I’ve met more than a few businesses that will give a discount for cash.

Assassin of joy.

Didn’t Amazon experiment with preemptive dispatch years ago?
