i would say the same about wordpress and joomla, unless it's statically generated it'll suck. The issue is regular people should be able to administer the site and add content to it. So drupal seems like a reasonable choice.

with regards to other things mentioned - youtube-nocookie should have been used but other than that i don't see a problem?

edit: drupal 10 is already out and they are still using 9 and not even 9.5

Why not markdown + static site generator?

markdown makes sense for things like documentation, but with these sites like gamersnexus i think there are some issues

1) how do you migrate all the existing content from joomla (which they do want to migrate) - would it be in some terrible html only format? would it be a mix of html and markdown?

2) how do want to use markdown for articles like https://gamersnexus.net/features/inside-collapse-artesian-bu... ? it would be highly customized markdown anyway, and the more markdown additions are, the less markdown makes sense anyways since portability becomes an issue

I think their current approach is fine - render once and cache is pretty normal. With that being said less is more and I hope they did not implement a lot of plugins or custom code that would require maintenance every other php/drupal upgrade.

What I would like to see instead is using svg graphs with high accessibility instead of just pictures.
