They can work fine together. Layout Builder is good and intuitive, similar in concept to Panels from D6 upward. It's part of core, so I use it first before resorting to contrib modules. Backdrop CMS (modern fork of D7) also uses it! @backdropcms

2) In my experience, D8-10 sites are generally best for enterprise-level and larger, more complex sites than the average small-medium size business needs. That's why @backdropcms came into existence. Backdrop is a branch of D7 that remains supported and much easier to move to.

StPaulTim is at #FLDC, probably looking for a Waffle House. If you have questions about @BackdropCMS or Simplo, be sure to find him. Unfortunatly, he no longer has a Twitter account. But, he might be peeking into this account from time to time. Or find him on Mastodon.

Is your site still built in #Drupal 7? Have you considered a move to @backdropcms? Join us for our 2/22 webinar with @jenlampton, the co-founder of Backdrop CMS to learn why it's a more affordable option than a move to D9. hubs.li/Q01Ct2wb0

3) Backdrop also incorporates some of the better architectural parts of D8 and above, while keeping focus on avoiding the complexity overhead that D8 introduced. For cost-concious site owners, it can make all the difference.

I have the benefit of participating in a very active open-source community that excels at answering debugging questions. We help each other learn along the way. I use the @drupal channel on Slack or the @backdropcms channel on Zulip.
