WordPress Sucks!

Thursday, 1 August 2024 — The New Dark Age

Well, I capitulated and installed a new theme as WordPress broke the one I’ve been using for years, which was the main reason I gave up on using WordPress and frankly, it’s changed so much I’m clueless, it’s turned into an alien landscape, I have neither the patience or the desire to relearn the interface, for the umpteenth time, it’s degenerated into possibly the worst user interface I’ve ever used on the Web!

But I’ll post new stories but I’m not going to try and reconstitute the old links I’m afraid and trying to deal with the WordPress ‘Happiness Engineers’ (yes that’s what they’re called) is just a step too far. But it does piss me off, I’ve been using WordPress for at least 15 years, damn it!

    Have you thought of shifting to Substack? Much easier to use and less shadow banning.

      I am on Substack: https://dotcommie.substack.com/ but that’s not the point.

    So sorry!

    I can barely cope with paper and pencil.

    Can’t you transfer to Substack as per your personal account?

    Wishing you well on your adventures – keep away from anyone calling themselves Happiness Engineers (over promise and under deliver!)
