Disability and “You get what you pay for”

I have explored the possibilities of this FREE WordPress builder and encountered some significant limitations. It’s tough to accept these restrictions, especially when other free site builders are equally limited or even more costly.
I understand the saying “you get what you pay for,” but for those of us already facing physical, financial, and social challenges due to disability, it can feel unjust and leave us feeling powerless.  It doesn’t seem fair that our ability to be creative, raise awareness, and share knowledge is hindered by external limitations imposed on us.
These restrictions imposed by the world due to our physical limitations can make us feel undeserving.
The phrase “You get what you pay for” can be interpreted as a subtle reminder of our limitations, which doesn’t sit right with me.

It can be frustrating to feel constrained by a system and society that limits us because of our disabilities, which none of us asked for. It makes me feel like we are not only dealing with the challenges of our disabilities, but also facing punishment from society for something beyond our control.

So I will have to do with this freeWP for now.

Sorry for my little rant.  Some things just feel so wrong.
