#drupal7 — Public Fediverse posts

Question for the #Drupal community:

Who misses #Drupal7?

It wasn't perfect, but it was approachable, productive, and easy to reason about. Somewhere between Drupal 8's power and complexity, it feels like some of that was lost.

What do you miss most?

My first client has made the voyage from #Drupal7 (now end of life) to #CiviCRM Standalone and it's looking good with the new Riverlea/Thames theme that improves on accessibility as well as looks.

@furicle I would love to give you a personal tour of BackdropCMS and get your feedback on how it compares to #WordPress and whether or not it's a good alternative.

Note: it is a fork of #Drupal7 that is focused on the user experience.

Nachdem #Drupal7 im Januar End of Life ist, stehen auf einmal die Chancen nicht schlecht, dass ich dieses Jahr noch ein #Wordpress aufsetze 😬

(Bitte keine Tipps für SSGs oder so, es geht um das Basis-CMS für ein #CiviCRM.)

Hello hive mind of the fediverse...

As #Drupal7 is going to definitely die soon, I'm looking for simple and #secure blogging system to replace it and to host my #blog. After those years I see a plethora of #PHP based options.

As I've realised #Drupal/#WordPress grade #CMS is an overkill for my needs, it can be something more simple, less complex. Wysiwyg editor and automatic updates possibilities would be more than enough...

What are your favourite solutions?

Why you should consider upgrading your #Drupal7 + #CiviCRM site to #BackdropCMS:

Now I remember way I blocked out working on a #drupal7 to #drupal10 #migration for a while. The hunt for workarounds for stuff is exhausting. #drupal

The latest release of Video Embed Field for #BackdropCMS pulls in a bunch of RTBC patches from the #Drupal7 queue, which have been languishing there but are much appreciated. Thanks to all who worked on them over the years!

clicked on a link posted by @nasa and i get a 403 Error

so i think, this is NASA, this has to be a mistake. maybe it's a problem with the blogs subsite, so i go their front page. what do i get?

a completely blank page.

immediately think they're blocking me because am on a VPN. so i go check the page source: it's running on a now unsupported by @drupal #Drupal7 with a "security" module almost a decade old

isn't this against USGOV web specifications?
