353 - Bye bye

Show Notes

It’s the last episode of our “Thinking the Unthinkable” series… and also David's last as a regular on WP Builds. We’ve saved the most “unthinkable” for the end which is: “Is it time to quit WordPress?”. It isn’t for Nathan, but for David it (sort of) is. He'll still use WordPress daily as his own local static site generator and code organiser, but he disabled Gutenberg and has stopped using almost all 3rd party software. As he's not going with WordPress’ new direction, it makes sense to make way for those who are. More on that in 2024! So this episode is done with a tear in our eyes, but we don't just cry, we get into the subject of why it's time for David to move on from his decades long obsession with WordPress, and what he's going to be doing next. What happened with WordPress for David to feel like there's better ways of making sites in the future?
