Not a fan of Wordpress and have no dog in the fight but managed platforms are not directly comparable, neither on the provider or user side of things. And if we’re talking about the future of web, managed commercial players are working hard to destroy the web in various ways. Also there’s nothing wrong with operating in a saturated market either. This tech-centric idea about growth is so toxic I don’t know where to begin. Like that existing users are worthless.
