I have a love/hate relationship with WordPress. I prefer it over any other CMS for reasons I can't fully explain. Probably nostalgia. I love the editor, the sidebar, the ability to find niche plugins in an endless marketplace, and how easy it is to get a site running.
What I don't love is how insecure it is. You're entirely dependent on plugins (if you're not a developer), and if WordPress updates and a plugin goes inactive, you're sitting on a vulnerability. It adds real stress for something that's just supposed to be a fun personal site.
I stopped building on it two years ago, even though I still like it more than Webflow and most alternatives I've tried. It's a bit sad.
