i have no problem with pineapple on pizza, but this checkbox is petty and stupid
#
[tw2113]
worse than the WPEngine one
#
GWG

i like pineapple on pizza. WordPress stunts? not so much.
#
GWG
[mattl]: It has made me withdraw somewhat... but to be honest I didn't fit in with the community much in recent memory
#
GWG
ClassicPress has what I like about WordPress...so I'm not ready to leave the full process
#
GWG
It strips the JS in favor of HTML...
#
GWG
So that philosophy works for me
#
Kupietz
Funny, I couldn't care less about pineapple pizza but somehow coming on the heels of the last few months that checkbox put me off.
#
Kupietz
I can't really explain it, it was just visceral.
#
GWG
It is juvenile
#
Kupietz
I sorely tempted to move to classicpress as well. I have a couple of vague reasons I'm holding back but it sure does seem like overall a good move
#
Kupietz
Yeah, the whole thing about tech giants acting juvenile is becoming offputting. Seems to be the expected behavior lately, like they have to act like they're 12.
#
Kupietz
BTW... fruit on pizza... tomato is a fruit :-)
#
GWG
kupietz: I know it is, but it isn't sweet
#
GWG
kupietz: I'm making sure my plugins work on both for the foreseeable future
#
Kupietz
How different are they under the hood? How much work is involved in maintaining compatibility with both?
#
Kupietz
As opposed to keeping up compatibility with just one?
#
GWG
I don't really support the block editor so just some minor tweaks
#
GWG
I make sure things work.. but I don't include block editor elements... unless someone sends a PR
#
Kupietz
interesting. The amount of under-the-hood customization and plugins I've written are one of the things that keeps me from venturing over... concern it'd be another decision like when I said, "I'm sick of my webhost, I'll just set up a server and host my sites myself at home".
#
Kupietz
So easy to say those things...
#
GWG
kupietz: ClassicPress 2.3.0 was rebased off of WordPress 6.2
#
Kupietz
Huh. So, pretty recent.
#
GWG
The 1.0 branch was forked from 4.9, the last pre block version.. but they rebased and may do more of that for the non blocky elements...
#
GWG
Stripping out all the block stuff makes it a much leaner codebase

Ah, thanks GWG, I'll have a look at that
