I could not understand why WordPress would destroy such a wonderful system. I found out I was not alone and people much smarter than I have solved the issue….but I am smart enough to switch…

This site windowstorussia.com no longer runs upon Original WordPress, it runs upon the CMS (Content Managing System) called “ClassicPress” and thank god for that…

They love block editing!
They think everyone is on mobile!
They hate the computer desktop!
They do not want people learning to code!
They do not listen to stupids like myself!

So I left, because the company I was keeping/associated with was even more stupid than I am…


What a last few days. I got my new passport and I just got my website back under control from the stupids…
