I would say it depends (as with everything else).

This is my two cents based on my experience, but I actually don't have a lot of time to completely switch to something else and I live in WordPress. I wanted to try switching to something else a few times in the past, but I ended up deciding to learn Laravel instead since I was already using PHP. Overall, I felt pretty good about the decision since it's at least a path forward in my circumstances, and Laravel is pretty darn awesome for someone like me.

FWIW the 2 most recent things I've wanted to get into were Elixir and .NET Core with C#. Both seem really nice. Just not enough time to justify it in my case. 🤷‍♂️
