Radio (and Frontier) are much more complex than iWeb, and need appropriately more time in the docs. Sadly, as the docs suck, you'll need time in the user community forums. What, the forums are mostly gone, withered away by link rot? Yep, true. Userland (and Dave Winer's winning congeniality) have turned enthusiastic supporters, nay, rabid fans, away for many years now. (I've been there, having used both since they were in beta...)

So why does anyone still use them? Because they're powerful, more-so than any CMSs currently available. The built-in language makes it possible for you to do whatever you want with your web pages. That is, once you've slogged your way through the machinations needed to get things working. But once that's done it's easy to create new sites and update existing sites. I still use it (almost daily).

When something better comes out I'll jump ship, as will the last few remaining users. (Or, as a better legacy to Dave Winer, perhaps they'll make it a **complete** open source product for the ages. The Frontier kernel may be found at frontierkernel.org.) When a company can't be bothered to update web pages, documentation, respond to email, or update the product in two years it's a bit of a hint.

Not bitter at all, and would jump with joy if Radio & Frontier were give a bit of TLC, but it's not going to happen. Dave's spending his legacy 140 characters at a time on Twitter, and whatever is left of Userland is in the bunker, in an undisclosed location. So very sad for one of the birthplaces of the modern web.
