jeremycherfas I've updated ClassicPress to 2.0 for my podcast site and I'm working locally with a new theme that knows nothing about IndieWeb. trying to decide whether I should leave indiewebification until it is live in production when I can easily use parsers etc.
#
GWG It is good they are tracking with some of the improvements to core WordPress.

#
jeremycherfas Indeed. No discernable difference to the live site, while I play with a new theme.

#
[lcs] Is the pitch for ClassicPress essentially just "WordPress without Gutenberg/blocks"?
#
GWG [lcs]: Somewhat, but they also make some other improvements to classic editor and other related matters
#
GWG Things that wouldn't be worked on in WordPress core
#
[lcs] Interesting. Any concrete examples?
#
GWG html5 is the default output, so that's a backcompat change
#
GWG Nothing earth shattering
#
[lcs] Yeah that's nice, though, I guess!

#
[Joe_Crawford] I am slow to change but ClassicPress is something that has my attention.

GWG [Joe_Crawford]: I'd have to run at least a test version of WordPress if I did. Plugin development and all.

[jeremycherfas] Iā€™m still a little worried about the longevity of CP but I support it myself and hope others will too. I just cannot think of a need for blocks.
