Looking at the numbers from Google Trends, I'd argue that Drupal may have gone too far in its quest to make everything configurable through a UI. It makes, in a lot of cases, for very complex UX.

The bottom line for us was that the compromise Drupal was offering (you can semi-code in the UI, but still need to rely on some custom coding for some glue) wasn't serving us well anymore. The Developer Experience was getting worse at each iteration.

I also don't feel it was ultimately serving our customers; most features are overwhelming, and it usually took a lot of training on our end to make the end-user not too unhappy.
