@init_sh@jackmcdade Me too, AI is more transformative when it’s based on a rock solid foundation with good guardrails and easy ability for different levels of skill to interact with the built site. Statamic is perfect for this, the admin UI is Soo good
@JamesWelbes@sfxdotcom@statamic That’s 💯 our experience as well. Our dev experience is millions of times better and clients love the admin experience in Statamic over WordPress hands down, they tell us so every day. Our servers use half the resources for the same number of sites. Paying for it saves us money!
@philsola_123 It burns my eyes. Also the contrast between the background of notifications in lists and the background of the admin is TERRIBLE some as low as 1.02:1
@srikat@TheGurjyot Commentary all over on Facebook and LinkedIn as well. It’s horrible. Gonna have to take ski goggles to the office just to look at the screen
@RinodeBoer@gridpane 2/2 the other thing I can’t get over is how Statamic sites use 1/3 the ram + CPU for the same content and complexity and is lightening fast. Better media management means they are half the size on disk. We need half the number of VPS resources. Laughing all the way to the bank
@RinodeBoer@gridpane We have sites with large numbers of CPTs and related fields in ACF. Some complicated builds. We host on Gridpane so server/stack not an issue.
I didn’t really think that were that bad until I move some of them to Statamic. The performance difference is unbelievable.
@MythThrazz@RinodeBoer Agreed, we choose if we build. But increasingly some years down the line they’ll just rebuild themselves without coming to us. Or new enquiries ask us what we use and if it’s WordPress then they move on. WP has a terrible rep in the NZ market these days.
@gridpane@RinodeBoer That’s fair. In our agency the number of clients wanting a better outcome than the clunky, hard to use WP admin UI and slow backend speed is exploding. We get weekly questions about what else is out there for them. So we’re switching them with each new rebuild
