You are right, haven't tried many alternatives. I suppose I've built a site for someone in squarespace, also backseat helped someone out with their wix based site. I want something really intuitive which would take no learning curve which is perhaps unrealistic. One person I know has used bubble and was satisfied with it, but to me it seemed like a bespoke type of language / gui based framework that had to be managed with a lot of dials and knobs, not eliminating the complexity just reformatting it in what is to me a foreign language. Also, I was not impressed by the quality of the site that was created with bubble but maybe that varies per user.
