   There is this war going on between WP Engine and Wordpress co-founder and CEO Matt Mullenweg. He called WP Engine a "cancer" and accused it of profiting from WordPress without contributing to development of the CMS. Now, WordPress org denies service to WP Engine, potentially putting sites at risk https://www.theregister.com/2024/09/26/wordpressorg_denies_service_to_wp #opensource #wordpress

     @nixCraft this will go very poorly for Matt, the only cancer in the WordPress community is his hubris. Tearing people down publicly for an opinion only serves to rip the community apart.
