WordPress Origin Story

I’ve been running WordPress since at least 2008. It’s gone through many changes, almost none of which I like. Gutenberg is crap. I’m looking for an alternative.

“Gutenberg […] offer[s] a more flexible and visually intuitive way to create content and customize websites using blocks.” —Google AI overview

This is complete bullshit. It’s not intuitive in the least, and it’s taken away quite a bit of functionality. I can code an HTML5 static site faster than I could customize a theme or write a blog post with this monstrosity. All of the hassle, none of the facility.
