Looks like I’m officially part of the blocked team. Just a recap of some of what I tried to contribute over the years. I contributed five plugins to #WordPress, including two that were voted the #1 and #3 plugins by users in 2009. The mobile plugin I helped make was the default mobile version on WP.org for a while. I coded the first few iterations of profiles.wordpress.org. I’ve also contributed to core. I organized three WordCamps, two in Vancouver and one in Whistler. I sponsored many others through my business, the majority of which I never even attended. There’s an old saying that when your friends suddenly become your enemies, you should seriously ask yourself why. I still believe in WordPress, I just find the recent actions to be reprehensible and not in the spirit of open source or what I thought was the spirit WordPress.






WTF is wrong with @webflow? They're forcing me to pay $15,000/year, up from $468! A 32x price increase overnight! And they gave me 1 week to decide if I want to upgrade or move the whole Failory site to another CMS!!
