CMS here not referring to content management system?

You're right about the CMS. But unlike the Western ecosystem centered around WordPress, South Korea's public and web ecosystem is pathologically dependent on isolated local bulletin board system (BBS)-centric CMS platforms like 'GnuBoard' or 'ZeroBoard/XE.' As a result, when the government mandates censorship modules, it creates vendor lock-in, as those modules are supplied exclusively in the form of plugins for these local CMS platforms
so we don't have many if any of those vBulletin instances on Japanese Web either... That's just normal.
Right. Each country has its own environment dependencies, but instead, global competitiveness weakens. But isn't the Japanese web rather more distinctive in terms of website styles? They have so many hardcore programmers over there
You're right. I need to explain that the bulletin board systems and forum systems are built primarily around a specific CMS. Sorry about that.
No, you need to explain what CMS stands for. Your three consecutive non-answers are making you look like you aren't a real person.
Does it stand for Censorship Management System?
Our local CMS stands for 'Can't Modify, Sorry'
