Spent a few hours on Drupal 8 and disliked it a lot. Will stay with D7 and will try Backdrop. Drupal should really make Drupal 7 simpler instead of overly complicated, otherwise its user base will shrink rapidly and eventually make Drupal itself unsustainable.
Drupal 8 is simpler. I've done stuff in it already that took many add on modules in d7.
really? it's slower for sure.

blog modules are gone, ok fine. to remove an installed module, you have remove all of its content first manually, if I have a 1000-node book, to remove book module is pretty time consuming.

I need learn how to install twig/c , APC now, better make the install easier if they become mandatory.

anyway I will stay with D7 while migrating to wordpress, been with drupal for 7+ years, drupal has been in consistent decline since 2009 while wordpress is climbing up, they're too far apart now, sigh

The big reason not to stay with D7: it's dying. Issue queue activity has dropped off a cliff in the last 6 months with D8 released.
