As a DM for homebrew games, I used Roll20 for 2+ years. When it works, its OK. When it doesn't, its frustrating. I use a lot of custom rules and they are simply not supported due to a lack of modularity within the system. A simple variant of Proficiency Dice in 5e is outlined in the rules, and even it is hacky and not well supported on Roll20.
The format feels like it was made two decades ago, and the web console spits out warnings and errors left and right. There has even been some conspiracies / drama with some of the higher-ups at Roll20, showing a lack of leadership.
Please, let's let Roll20 die. Support another system.
Not easy to learn, not friendly controls

There are already character builders to PnP Pathfinder like PCGen and Pathbuilder 1e. Or are you talking about modding WotR for managing a PnP campaign? That's a much bigger ask, since there aren't really any dev-supported tools for user-generated content the way, say, Neverwinter Nights did. Source: 10 months ago
I jumped onto their website http://pcgen.org and a comment says they're looking into it. 6.09.06 has a problem, 6.09.05 does not. Source: about 1 year ago
If it's for 1e, though it isn't web-based and looks like a programme from the 90s, I swear by PCGen as the best character builder by far. Source: about 1 year ago
PCGen is free, open source, and reasonably complete. Source: over 1 year ago
It looks like a programme from the 90s, but if you're referring to 1e, I swear that PCGen is by far the best character builder. Source: over 1 year ago
There are other options: https://roll20.net/. Source: 5 months ago
I've used roll20.net up until now. They have a find group feature and a virtual table top with character sheets and dice roller included, so everything you need to play virtually is all on the one site. Source: 5 months ago

There are plenty of D&D software programs out there that are free and paid versions. Many of them with the ability to have friends join and interact with the table. As basic as Tabletop Simulator to Fantasy Grounds (both on steam that I have experience with, not an endorsement). roll20.net being a popular browser based version. Source: 6 months ago
I have made a character on roll20.net that maybe border line iffy/OP, so I may have to make one that's not. My free time can be a bit unusual at times(it's 12:24AM as I write this)so someone who has similar free times as I do(if your interested let me know and we can talk times), basicly I've been listening to a DnD podcast and I think it sounds fun and I want to try it out Edit: I'm in PST timezone in...
