I am, by no means any professional, I just like to share my experiences on D* which I really want to like, place all hopes and currently agree on their philosophy, but I see the point of blogs to be written for projects by multiple authors. About professional sharing of knowledge I still can't find anything better solution than ikiwiki.

Currently I am taking part in one project where, unfortunately, I am not even a sysadmin, but we have to write our stuff on Joomla with very terrible layout and theme, where basically you see many poorly placed, over-sized buttons which appear on top and the same on the right side and you can find about three lines of text per article, just right after you scroll past by large buttons, some pictures stolen from the internet, "about the project" stuff, which is not helpful if you want users to come back, past the obligatory links to partners aaaaand, if you yet are not bored enough scrolling, you arrive on the bottom of the page with more images and buttons to partners and dedicated about page. Somewhere between that you can see three small links to three small articles with three introduction lines. It could have been better to have the most simple wordpress engine.

And if you are a Romanian plumber, please, for Ada Lovelace's sake, do not side-hustle in IT..
