Well, I'll let Google easily translate my answer into English
As for the not so nice colleague and his hint - yes, especially with something like that you sometimes need a thick skin and I thought the people from the "Ruhrpott" (region in Germany) are used to a harder tone
Well, here at my house it's "Not enough scolding is enough praise" and in my business field you're always just "the one who doesn't have a clue anyway" or "just a stupid craftsman" - I hear that almost every day, but I know my customers then don't just leave me there, turn around and leave just because they didn't rub my stomach. If something doesn't work, then it's just "What shit have you built there again", even if it was just a mistake by the operator (customer).
It's the same with FlatPress. People throw it on, have previously read something about mature and extensively tested and then one error after the other jumps out at them - that's stupid - for both sides. A user is also a customer, even if he doesn't pay anything for it - if something doesn't work, then he's dissatisfied, if he's dissatisfied he either throws the thing in the garbage or he lets out his frustration and shouts it into the forum das die Hütte wobbles. What's better now? He wouldn't have said anything and opted for a different product, or - he complains, but at least you know why he's using something else - I think the latter is better.
My enthusiasm for FlatPress has also taken a hit and I make no secret of it. I got to know a support "as non-existent" - not only for the current question, but also for other topics. Don't be surprised if I always talk about customers - that just makes it easier for me to explain and it's nothing else. By "non-existent" I mean something like this: You walk into a shop - a good example is a hardware store - has a question about a product (here FlatPress) and far and wide there is no one to be seen ... you hear its echo - nothing more . You point out this fact and get the answer "This is done in your free time", "The changes made by PHP 8 are enormous". If something like that is put forward as a reason for something that has nothing to do with either of them, then it just gets difficult. As a customer, you then think to yourself - ok, they're overwhelmed or don't see through at all - just get out, nothing sensible can happen here. But exactly this image should never be conveyed, since it does not correspond to the truth - the customer just does not see it. In my professional field there is a lot of planning, orders, currently delivery bottlenecks - my customer doesn't see any of that either, he only sees - I pull up with a toolbox, do something that he can't or doesn't want to do and then disappear again. He doesn't see that I drove around forever to get the stuff together that I need from him, he also doesn't see what I have to do afterwards when I'm away from him again. He only sees the brief moment that I am with him. Here at FlatPress, that's when I ask a question and get an answer. I don't see anything else, just the time I was here and what I got - nothing more.
Now not everyone is like that - yells in a forum and disappears again, that should be clear at the latest with the length of my posts. I've discovered FlatPress for myself and I'm tearing the thing apart into all its components. I've spent the last few days fixing a lot of the bugs and dangers (to users' wallets) that got in the way for me to use it and beating the thing up to do what I want and do it that way , how I want it. The downside is of course - I can only do this for myself at first, since my customizations are no longer compatible with the official FlatPress version. I turned the Leggero template inside out, put the CSS through the meat grinder, threw out all the plugins that aren't error-free - yes - it's lost a bit, but it works and you can even run it through a validator without the white one Waving the flag and heading into the weekend. If I don't find any more major errors, I look deeper into the FlatPress gears and maybe also track down the errors that have already been reported and those I have also found (such as parser errors with the Atom feed, GDPR-related dangers for the purse, the annoying time issue (which has caused problems with almost every system so far - even with the big ones), template errors, etc.). I'll announce what's easy to fix in the official FlatPress version as soon as I've tested it and have the time - otherwise my own page is of course in the foreground ... and now the translator is full.
