Looking over EmDash. I don’t like that they call it “the spiritual successor to WordPress”. Isn’t the spirit of WordPress from Matt Mullenweg’s vision of the project? Matt is very much still involved. Feels wrong for Cloudflare to frame it that way.
Introducing EmDash — the spiritual successor to WordPress that solves plugin security

Today we are launching the beta of EmDash, a full-stack serverless JavaScript CMS built on Astro 6.0. It combines the features of a traditional CMS with modern security, running plugins in sandboxed Worker isolates.

@manton well, it works only on cloudflare infra and cant be self hosted. so its barely a successor.
