Drupal appears to be wanting to confront WordPress with the launch of Drupal 11 and Starshot, which is aimed at making Drupal more approachable and easier for creators to adopt.
Drupal was one of the first open source projects I ever contributed to (back in 2004!!). I'm glad to see its continued developed and am excited about its future.

Who hunted Drupal 11?
Drupal 11 was hunted by Chris Messina. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
