I'm confused for years there have been a large collection of 1-click options when logged in. It says here WordPress for instance is New but that has been there

I'm confused for years there have been a large collection of 1-click options when logged in. It says here WordPress for instance is New but that has been there forever. Can someone explain how Marketplace currently is different than the 1 click options we have long already have? The main issue has been with WordPress which I imagine is your most popular 1 click option is that it runs on LAMP rather than LEMP (the more modern recommended option). Does this "new" version resolve that? Or am I missing something?

I assume the difference is that people will be able to delf-deploy their apps to the marketplace. Think of it as an analog to "PPAs" for Ubuntu repositories.

They deprecated a bunch of one-click apps: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/marketplace/deprecated/ https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/marketplace/deprecated/ This looks like the next iteration of the concept.

  That what I was thinking, but they feature ones created by DO there and even label as new for instance for WordPress, so was wondering what was new about the WordPress one click option for instance since already exists.
