- claudiulodro 3y agoNo, see the earlier Axios article: https://www.axios.com/2023/07/18/vox-media-chorus https://www.axios.com/2023/07/18/vox-media-chorus > Details: Vox Media will move its own websites off of Chorus and into WordPress VIP, the enterprise arm of the 20-year-old CMS company.
- vxNsr 3y agoOh wow, their tech stack is a little confusing then, they’ll be using WP for CMS and duet for the actual publishing. But isn’t WP kinda terrible as a pure CMS, like the whole power is that you get an easy barebones cms with a really powerful front end… at least that’s how I see it.
