Not true, both use the GD library.
- geerlingguy 10y agoTo expand on this; they both use GD by default, as it's the most widely-installed library with PHP extensions available out of the box. But both have plugins/modules that you can use to switch the library to ImageMagick very easily, and some plugins/modules would require ImageMagick for specific functionality.
- rmccue 10y agoWordPress uses ImageMagick if available, or falls back to GD (so technically GD is the minimum requirement). This does affect WP.
