Drupal CMS is working to solve some of this - from better designs to confidence in the choice of modules. Any truly open and free choice is going to have this sort of concern though - but unlike a closed ecosystem, at least you do have a choice or path forward when the situation arises.

> Drupal CMS is working to solve some of this
We've been hearing this for years. On the Drupal site, it says it's a trial and makes you register to download it. Last time I downloaded the Windows package, it gave a Drupal white screen of death. I'm not planning on registering again to try it again. Nor do I want to use AI to install and manage my CMS.

That trial form is if you want a desktop installer from the Drupal Association. You can still install Drupal CMS directly with no form by clicking the "Download the Composer package instead" button next to that.
