@enunomaduro @X 3 years later and people call it still „formerly known as twitter“ 😵💫
English
this feels like a mistake.. there are a huge php community on @X, and php should maintain a presence where its developers already are 👍🏻
English
You call yourself a Christian engineer, but you haven’t given your life to Open Source? Huh.
What license would Jesus choose? I don’t know if it’s GPL or MIT, but sure as heck it isn’t proprietary.
English
@WordPress Stop it with the royal "we". "You" don't have it, the community does. In fact, "you" don't have any kind of PHP dependency management and Trac tickets for it have been ignored for years. Only after WP Engine touched it, it suddenly became "important". Funny, that.
English
"WPackagist was acquired by WP Engine, a private-equity backed company," but now we have WP Composer, with 17x faster cold resolves and CDN caching.
Open source always wins.
roots.io@rootswp
✨ We built WP Composer — an independent, open source Composer repository for WordPress plugins and themes, with 17x faster cold resolves than WPackagist wp-composer.com

@photomatt @DeepakNesss @automattic I'm a bit confused. Is this the thing that you think needs to be added to the Matt vs WP Engine timeline?
It's a great achievement, that meditation garden, but it does seem unrelated even to WordPress in general, let alone the attack on WP Engine.
English
@IdeaG @DeepakNesss @automattic Opened a new meditation garden next to the Rothko Chapel in Houston: ma.tt/2025/11/garden/
English
Now that the conflict is still ongoing between WordPress (I mean, Matt) and WP Engine, should I keep updating the timeline?

Dear @bgardner, is it a violation of @FTC paid influencer disclosure guidelines to quote complimentary things about @wpengine in @therepositorywp when you sponsor them? Do you have financial relationships with others quoted in the article?

@IdeaG @DeepakNesss @automattic In January over 3,400 college students attended a WordPress Campus Connect event. It's now scaling up even further.

English
@photomatt @DeepakNesss @automattic No, what have *you* done, personally, apart from the bunch of nasty tweets?
English
@IdeaG @DeepakNesss Check out State of the Word, and look at everything coming up with 7.0. @automattic has shipped a ton of amazing things, including plugins and themes for all paid plans on .com, and tons of AI stuff.
English
@photomatt @DeepakNesss Well, if you did something good, I'm sure that would be included.
English
@DeepakNesss Yes and you could include some good things instead of just shilling for Silver Lake.
English
WordPress 7.0 will absolutely, 100% get the new Google Docs-style editing. Authors will be able to work together in real time on a post.
The discussion now is around whether it's going to be enabled by default. It's not unusual for such a major new feature to be opt-in at first.
English
@jonathan_dejong I think we at least agree that both of the things are bad 😁 Enjoy your weekend as well!
English
@IdeaG And that is perfectly fine to have as an opinion 👍! I see no point arguing about the perceived comparative severity of two separate things. Enjoy your weekend.
English
And it only took less than 24h for this to pop up on every composer run:
"Info from wpackagist.org: WPackagist is now maintained by WP Engine. Learn more at wpengine.com"
Which I'm sure is a permanent message that will just shift to marketing. Prove me wrong🤡
WPackagist@wpackagist
WPackagist has been acquired by @wpengine. For over a decade, Outlandish built and maintained this service. Now WP Engine is carrying it forward - with the same commitment to the developer community in the WordPress ecosystem.
English
WTF is this b.s. @photomatt ?
WordPress@WordPress
The parasite continues to eat the host. The cancer is trying to spread.
English
@jonathan_dejong I would argue that one message has done more harm to WordPress than the composer messages ever will, even if they are more annoying personally.
English
@IdeaG As an individual message, yep. But I don't have to see X posts multiple times a day in my terminal. Now I've seen this one twice (gee thanks a lot! 😉)
English
@SwichLabs @photomatt Keep going. This is making your point so much stronger 👍 My respect for you just keeps growing.
English
@IdeaG @photomatt Damn right, my goal is to insult you, because you’re retarded.
English
At this point, this is just sad, @photomatt. We all know you hate them, pretending to talk in the name of the project is just indecent.

English
@trickybuddha @therepositorywp It is well known who controls that account.
English
@IdeaG @therepositorywp The official Wordpress Twitter account did so it’s a fair statement that Wordpress did.
English
WP Engine Acquires WPackagist. WordPress Calls It a “Parasite.”

English
@SwichLabs @photomatt Resorting to ad hominem really drives your very well reasoned opinion home. Well done 👍
English
@IdeaG @photomatt Shut the fuck up. Just because you and other people are ignorant and/or retarded doesn’t mean you’re right.
English
@danhgilmore @photomatt It's not his folks. He himself is the asshole in question.
English
Ah, good to see that things haven't changed since I left WordPress.
Looks like @photomatt is still cool with his folks being complete fucking assholes...

It's cute when companies think customers are dumb and they can openwash their way to a good reputation.
