Wordpress: Everything about it

Got suckered into helping a non-profit with their web presence, and of course, it was a Wordpress site (at least it wasn't a Facebook page).

Everything about WP is mildly infuriating at best, just regular infuriating at worst. Everything. If you know, you know. It's like they tried so hard to make it "easy" to use that it went full circle into a fuster-cluck of unintuitive and clunky everything.

With every facet of the experience being an upsell, is there a tier where it's just not horrible to use?

Specific examples:

• WYSIWYG editor doesn't match the preview
• Chasing the scroll point in the outline when moving elements
• Can't edit block properties after they're added
• Everything is a damn upsell
  • Want to remove the Wordpress footer? Upgrade to a paid plan (does not specify tier)
  • Okay, I've updated to a paid plan that meets our needs. Please remove the footer please.
  • "Oh, you have to have a plan two tiers up to do that"
• General clunkyness
• Only supports Apple map embeds which cannot find any of the addresses I need to enter
  • Cannot embed a Google map properly (doesn't support percentage widths for the iframe element so I can't make it responsive)
• Changing the column widths on a layout grid block never releases the slider, so you have to mash keys until something else selects that locks it roughly where you want it.
