People often attack Wordpress because it’s not sufficiently current in its core. That’s actually a strength. Wordpress wouldn’t be such a large part of the web if it had been rewritten in every once hip language (Ruby etc) or tried to incorporate fad. Wordpress is a boon because it’s a solid base with massive support and institutional knowledge that can be built in in any way you imagine. It’s totally free to use if you know what you are doing and you can create almost anything with it. Wordpress will be here when the platforms you mention are gone. Does that make it quirky, less immediate and harder to use sometimes? Yes. Thats the price you pay for access.
