  I was forced to endure it for some time in the past. Would not wish it for my worst enemy to use Moodle

    User experience wise, Canvas > Moodle easily

    I didn’t know Canvas was open source, that’s cool

    What made moodle frustrating?

    I have also heard the opposite take, that canvas sucks and moodle is great.

    Did you use it as a student/user, or as an administrator?

      Educator here. The text editor is awful. E.g. the font size in the paragraph font style selection isn’t consistent. Type text without changing don’t size -> c/p text from other source, select ‘normal’ paragraph style to match the initial style of my typed text -> font size differs. So the font size used as standard isn’t the same as the normal paragraph style. Also moving content on a course is slow and drag/drop only. Often you have to drag an item to the top of the, only to drop in something in between, scroll up/down in the browser, repeat.

      As a student, it was extremely annoying to browse through subjects and find what I needed to do. Really had a bad time with their UX.
