Fun fact: "wix" of wix.com in German language phonetically translates to a vulgar word for masturbation. Not only describes my feeling towards services like these but also gives new meaning to the "do it yourself" mentality.

    I'd rather push people to Wix rather than build them something bespoke on a really limited budget.

    One could say the users of Wix are "Wixxers". (German insult)

    Smoother funfact: Wix themselves used this vulgar word for advertisement with the slogan: „ich wixxe“ as far as I remember

    I loathe WIX even when someone pays me to set up a site for them with it. At least it's a fast gig and usually make a decent amount for what it is.

    @dsantrat Out of interest, why to you loathe it? I've never set one up for anyone else so I'd be interested in your thoughts on this.

    @PrivateGER wouldn't you write it 'wichser'? 😅 But 'wixxer' is a pretty good movie though.

    @KittyMeowstika Depends. ^^
    In that case it fits.
