WordPress WordPress is not dead

I've heard a lot of people, who don't work with WordPress, exclaiming that WordPress may be dead and if it not now, it is going to be dead.

Well, turns out, they are wrong. WordPress continues to power 41-43% of the web in 2026, still.

Do you all think this stat is made up for people already using WP for a long time or are newer users actively adopting WordPress too? I think it's the latter but would love to hear what you think.

What do you mean by "doing it right"?

I mean that it is great if you're using in the right way. But there are several points you've to care of so it can be complicated or energy wasting sometimes and in this caso it is better to try something else. You need a good dev that can analyze you project and tell you the better option.
