I'm sure this won't go anywhere, but on the off chance that anyone from WP Engine is looking for the #wpengine hashtag because of some kind of current Wordpress community drama, could you please poke someone to fix whatever is behind one of your load balancers serving up a TLS certificate that expired on Feb 28th 2026 please and thank you.

Clearly No Adult In Charge Of WordPress
WP Engine, who is in a prolonged legal battled with WordPress.org and Automattic over trademark and other legal matters bought a plug-in today. Congrats to them.
But then in response to this the WordPress.org X/Twitter account called WPE a parasite.
This was obviously Matt Mullenweg misusing his control over the non-profit/open source WordPress project to throw arrows and just be a total clown.
I’m not going to mince words here. The leadership (ahem Matt Mullenweg) is not right in the head. And he’s taking the WordPress project down with him. Which is a real shame, because the WordPress community on the whole is fantastic. But to outsiders they just see Matt acting erratic and, well, small.
Clearly there are no adults in the decision room at WP HQ. Where is Mary Hubbard the Executive Director of the WordPress project in all this? You know where? No where!
Something needs to be done. But nothing probably will.
This is just depressing. Full stop.

Search Engine Journal: WP Engine Vs Automattic & Mullenweg Is Back In Play. “Although [Matt] Mullenweg blogged last month that the ruling was a ‘significant milestone,’ that’s somewhat of an overstatement because the court had, in fact, dismissed the counts related to antitrust and monopolization with leave to amend, allowing WP Engine to amend and refile its complaint, which it has now done.”

“U.S. District Judge Araceli Martinez-Olguin, a Joe Biden appointee, denied Automattic and Mullenweg’s bid to strike or dismiss claims including defamation, trade libel, unjust enrichment and intentional interference with contractual and economic relations claims. She partly granted dismissal of antitrust and one Computer Fraud and Abuse Act claim, both with leave to amend.”

“Even if this case ends with a complete victory for Mullenweg and Automattic, his actions have shaken my support of — and faith in — the WordPress ecosystem. The original dispute is something I can understand. Mullenweg’s response, however, remains alarming. Actions do not need to be illegal for them to be wrong.”

Has #WPEngine bought #Automattic yet? Wake me up when WP Engine buys Automattic. Ever since @[email protected] decided to turn into an even bigger douchebag than he was before I've completely scrubbed #Wordpress out of my personal and professional life. All former Wordpress sites are now running #Grav, #Hugo, and other technologies.
