There is just so much wrong with this @photomatt
Do you not understand how this impacts #WordPress? Do you not understand how many contributors have a relationship with @wpengine?

I joined PostStatus. @photomatt called me out for "doxxing" him in my Medium article by sharing the DMs he sent me containing a legal threat for speaking openly on his actions. This is the discussion that unfolded.

No, I wasn't kidding. The whole point of Blind is to protect people's identity, but at Automattic now you have to out yourself to Matt in order to gain access. So weird man. #automattic#wpdrama@wordpress
First he shuts down Anonymattic, then his blocks employees from signing up to @TeamBlind and now he wants to control the one space where people can get the support for their post traumattic stress relief?

Y'all! In @photomatt's latest screed he is saying the quiet part out LOUD.

To be clear: @photomatt and @automattic have set a precedent not dissimilar to Amazon - encouraging the growth of an product built by another to then replicate it and introduce their own version of it.
If you are a plugin developer you should be concerned. #wordpress#wpdrama
Disgruntled open source zealot who became a "billionaire" on the backs of free labor from tens of thousands of free laborers is mad he has to stop harassing, maligning, and trying to extort his biggest competitor. #newsat11#wpdrama
I’m disgusted and sickened by being legally forced to provide free labor and services to @wpengine, a dangerous precedent that should chill every open source maintainer. While I disagree with the court’s decision, I've fully complied with its order. You can most changes on the
