When I started out my career I basically was a one man web design agency, tailoring to small local businesses. When looking for a CMS I quickly found that Drupal allowed me the ease and flexibility to configure and customize websites for my customers. It was a perfect fit for me because I had enough skills to install and host sites, and to customize those things with code that I couldn't find a ready made module for.
Over time Drupal changed a lot, and my skills grew. My focus shifted more and more to the technical side. As Drupal became more professional, so did I, and with it, the customers became a lot bigger too.
I started to manage a team of developers, and then multiple. Finally I made a move to a big Corp in which Drupal was not used. I like the people that I work with a lot, all extremely capable and talented people. But I feel we're constantly reinventing the wheel. Things that I feel have long been solved in Drupal are somewhat half-assed due to the chosen tech stack and the time constraints. Drupal may not be perfect, but it did have an evolution of more than 20 years, and that shows. A very strong entity system, fields, taxonomy, user management, roles/permissions, i18n, asset handling (media), slugs, redirects, breadcrumbs, workflows, revisions, and perhaps the cherry on top: JsonApi (a porcelain if you ask me). A strong community and reasonable documentation means that it's possible to switch vendors, as everybody works with the same API's (mileage may vary a bit).
The situation now with where I'm at couldn't be further from that. Everything JavaScript and microservices based, build on a (imho) dreadful SaaS 'CMS' (Contentful). The so called 'enterprise' CMS is severely lacking, it's a usability a nightmare, I can't stress how bad it is. It's basically a glorified database, which means that everything else needed is being built completely from scratch. That simply doesn't compete with the 20+ years of evolution Drupal has had.
So yeah, I miss Drupal.
