I loathe the Gutenberg editor WP devs have spent so much time on rather than fix all the security holes, but the Disable Gutenberg plugin allows me to mostly forget it exists. The last straw was having had issues with doing my first new WordPress install in a while. The latest version of PHP WP does officially support is out of support as far as the PHP devs are concerned, and I had to edit a core file to get it to install with the PHP 8.1 (released over a year ago) that comes with Ubuntu 22.04 (released ten months ago). Once it is installed, it would work without that patch, but argh, enough! There are a bunch of worthwhile static site generators out there, but some of the sites I want to port want to allow comments, so I either need to pay a third party to host those (no budget) or have another free self-hosted CMS that does dynamic sites. Which one(s) do people recommend? ClassicPress exists to be 'WordPress without Gutenberg' and supports PHP 8.0, but if there's something better, I would love to know. I would greatly prefer something reasonably light, so Drupal and Joomla! are out.
