autocrattic (more matt shenanigans, not tumblr this time)

I am almost definitely not the right person for this writeup, but I'm closer than most people on here, so here goes! This is all open-source tech drama, and I take my time laying out the context, but the short version is: Matt tried to extort another company, who immediately posted receipts, and now he's refusing to log off again. The long version is... long.

If you don't need software context, scroll down/find the "ok tony that's enough. tell me what's actually happening" heading, or just go read the pink sections. Or look at this PDF.

the background

So. Matt's original Good Idea was starting WordPress with fellow developer Mike Little in 2003, which is free and open-source software (FOSS) that was originally just for blogging, but now powers lots of websites that do other things. In particular, Automattic acquired WooCommerce a long time ago, which is free online store software you can run on WordPress.

FOSS is... interesting. It's a world that ultimately is powered by people who believe deeply that information and resources should be free, but often have massive blind spots (for example, Wikipedia's consistently had issues with bias, since no amount of "anyone can edit" will overcome systemic bias in terms of who has time to edit or is not going to be driven away by the existing contributor culture). As with anything else that people spend thousands of hours doing online, there's drama. As with anything else that's technically free but can be monetized, there are:

Heaps of companies and solo developers who profit off WordPress themes, plugins, hosting, and other services;

Conflicts between volunteer contributors and for-profit contributors;

Annoying founders who get way too much credit for everything the project has become.

the WordPress ecosystem

A project as heavily used as WordPress (some double-digit percentage of the Internet uses WP. I refuse to believe it's the 43% that Matt claims it is, but it's a pretty large chunk) can't survive just on the spare hours of volunteers, especially in an increasingly monetised world where its users demand functional software, are less and less tech or FOSS literate, and its contributors have no fucking time to build things for that userbase.

Matt runs Automattic, which is a privately-traded, for-profit company. The free software is run by the WordPress Foundation, which is technically completely separate (wordpress.org). The main products Automattic offers are WordPress-related: WordPress.com, a host which was designed to be beginner-friendly; Jetpack, a suite of plugins which extend WordPress in a whole bunch of ways that may or may not make sense as one big product; WooCommerce, which I've already mentioned. There's also WordPress VIP, which is the fancy bespoke five-digit-plus option for enterprise customers. And there's Tumblr, if Matt ever succeeds in putting it on WordPress. (Every Tumblr or WordPress dev I know thinks that's fucking ridiculous and impossible. Automattic's hiring for it anyway.)

Automattic devotes a chunk of its employees toward developing Core, which is what people in the WordPress space call WordPress.org, the free software. This is part of an initiative called Five for the Future — 5% of your company's profits off WordPress should go back into making the project better. Many other companies don't do this.

There are lots of other companies in the space. GoDaddy, for example, barely gives back in any way (and also sucks). WP Engine is the company this drama is about. They don't really contribute to Core. They offer relatively expensive WordPress hosting, as well as providing a series of other WordPress-related products like LocalWP (local site development software), Advanced Custom Fields (the easiest way to set up advanced taxonomies and other fields when making new types of posts. If you don't know what this means don't worry about it), etc.

Anyway. Lots of strong personalities. Lots of for-profit companies. Lots of them getting invested in, or bought by, private equity firms.

Matt being Matt, tech being tech

As was said repeatedly when Matt was flipping out about Tumblr, all of the stuff happening at Automattic is pretty normal tech company behaviour. Shit gets worse. People get less for their money. WordPress.com used to be a really good place for people starting out with a website who didn't need "real" WordPress — for $48 a year on the Personal plan, you had really limited features (no plugins or other customisable extensions), but you had a simple website with good SEO that was pretty secure, relatively easy to use, and 24-hour access to Happiness Engineers (HEs for short. Bad job title. This was my job) who could walk you through everything no matter how bad at tech you were. Then Personal plan users got moved from chat to emails only. Emails started being responded to by contractors who didn't know as much as HEs did and certainly didn't get paid half as well. Then came AI, and the mandate for HEs to try to upsell everyone things they didn't necessarily need. (This is the point at which I quit.)

But as was said then as well, most tech CEOs don't publicly get into this kind of shitfight with their users. They're horrid tyrants, but they don't do it this publicly.

ok tony that's enough. tell me what's actually happening

WordCamp US, one of the biggest WordPress industry events of the year, is the backdrop for all this. It just finished.

There are.... a lot of posts by Matt across multiple platforms because, as always, he can't log off. But here's the broad strokes.

Sep 17

Matt publishes a wanky blog post about companies that profit off open source without giving back. It targets a specific company, WP Engine.

Compare the Five For the Future pages from Automattic and WP Engine, two companies that are roughly the same size with revenue in the ballpark of half a billion. These pledges are just a proxy and aren’t perfectly accurate, but as I write this, Automattic has 3,786 hours per week (not even counting me!), and WP Engine has 47 hours. WP Engine has good people, some of whom are listed on that page, but the company is controlled by Silver Lake, a private equity firm with $102 billion in assets under management. Silver Lake doesn’t give a dang about your Open Source ideals. It just wants a return on capital. So it’s at this point that I ask everyone in the WordPress community to vote with your wallet. Who are you giving your money to? Someone who’s going to nourish the ecosystem, or someone who’s going to frack every bit of value out of it until it withers?

(It's worth noting here that Automattic is funded in part by BlackRock, who Wikipedia calls "the world's largest asset manager".)

Sep 20 (WCUS final day)

WP Engine puts out a blog post detailing their contributions to WordPress.

Matt devotes his keynote/closing speech to slamming WP Engine.

He also implies people inside WP Engine are sending him information.

For the people sending me stuff from inside companies, please do not do it on your work device. Use a personal phone, Signal with disappearing messages, etc. I have a bunch of journalists happy to connect you with as well. #wcus — Twitter I know private equity and investors can be brutal (read the book Barbarians at the Gate). Please let me know if any employee faces firing or retaliation for speaking up about their company's participation (or lack thereof) in WordPress. We'll make sure it's a big public deal and that you get support. — Tumblr

Matt also puts out an offer live at WordCamp US:

“If anyone of you gets in trouble for speaking up in favor of WordPress and/or open source, reach out to me. I’ll do my best to help you find a new job.” — source tweet, RTed by Matt

He also puts up a poll asking the community if WP Engine should be allowed back at WordCamps.

Sep 21

Matt writes a blog post on the WordPress.org blog (the official project blog!): WP Engine is not WordPress.

He opens this blog post by claiming his mom was confused and thought WP Engine was official.

The blog post goes on about how WP Engine disabled post revisions (which is a pretty normal thing to do when you need to free up some resources), therefore being not "real" WordPress. (As I said earlier, WordPress.com disables most features for Personal and Premium plans. Or whatever those plans are called, they've been renamed like 12 times in the last few years. But that's a different complaint.)

Sep 22: More bullshit on Twitter. Matt makes a Reddit post on r/Wordpress about WP Engine that promptly gets deleted. Writeups start to come out:

Search Engine Journal: WordPress Co-Founder Mullenweg Sparks Backlash

TechCrunch: Matt Mullenweg calls WP Engine a ‘cancer to WordPress’ and urges community to switch providers

Sep 23 onward

Okay, time zones mean I can't effectively sequence the rest of this.

Matt defends himself on Reddit, casually mentioning that WP Engine is now suing him.

Also here's a decent writeup from someone involved with the community that may be of interest.

WP Engine drops the full PDF of their cease and desist, which includes screenshots of Matt apparently threatening them via text.

Twitter link | Direct PDF link

This PDF includes some truly fucked texts where Matt appears to be trying to get WP Engine to pay him money unless they want him to tell his audience at WCUS that they're evil.

Matt, after saying he's been sued and can't talk about it, hosts a Twitter Space and talks about it for a couple hours.

He also continues to post on Reddit, Twitter, and on the Core contributor Slack.

Here's a comment where he says WP Engine could have avoided this by paying Automattic 8% of their revenue.

Another, 20 hours ago, where he says he's being downvoted by "trolls, probably WPE employees"

At some point, Matt updates the WordPress Foundation trademark policy. I am 90% sure this was him — it's not legalese and makes no fucking sense to single out WP Engine.

Old text: The abbreviation “WP” is not covered by the WordPress trademarks and you are free to use it in any way you see fit. New text: The abbreviation “WP” is not covered by the WordPress trademarks, but please don’t use it in a way that confuses people. For example, many people think WP Engine is “WordPress Engine” and officially associated with WordPress, which it’s not. They have never once even donated to the WordPress Foundation, despite making billions of revenue on top of WordPress.

Sep 25: Automattic puts up their own legal response.

anyway this fucking sucks

This is bigger than anything Matt's done before. I'm so worried about my friends who're still there. The internal ramifications have... been not great so far, including that Matt's naturally being extra gung-ho about "you're either for me or against me and if you're against me then don't bother working your two weeks".

Despite everything, I like WordPress. (If you dig into this, you'll see plenty of people commenting about blocks or Gutenberg or React other things they hate. Unlike many of the old FOSSheads, I actually also think Gutenberg/the block editor was a good idea, even if it was poorly implemented.)

I think that the original mission — to make it so anyone can spin up a website that's easy enough to use and blog with — is a good thing. I think, despite all the ways being part of FOSS communities since my early teens has led to all kinds of racist, homophobic and sexual harm for me and for many other people, that free and open-source software is important.

So many people were already burning out of the project. Matt has been doing this for so long that those with long memories can recite all the ways he's wrecked shit back a decade or more. Most of us are exhausted and need to make money to live. The world is worse than it ever was.

Social media sucks worse and worse, and this was a world in which people missed old webrings, old blogs, RSS readers, the world where you curated your own whimsical, unpaid corner of the Internet. I started actually actively using my own WordPress blog this year, and I've really enjoyed it.

And people don't want to deal with any of this.

The thing is, Matt's right about one thing: capital is ruining free open-source software. What he's wrong about is everything else: the idea that WordPress.com isn't enshittifying (or confusing) at a much higher rate than WP Engine, the idea that WP Engine or Silver Lake are the only big players in the field, the notion that he's part of the solution and not part of the problem.

But he's started a battle where there are no winners but the lawyers who get paid to duke it out, and all the volunteers who've survived this long in an ecosystem increasingly dominated by big money are giving up and leaving.

Anyway if you got this far, consider donating to someone on gazafunds.com. It'll take much less time than reading this did.

[sirfrogsworth]

Y'all are making me feel like Neil Armstrong.

I was the first!

I'm trying to think of any other cool ancient Tumblr shit I did.

Ummm...

Oh... asks were not rebloggable at first.

I was all, "Hey, can you fix that?"

Tumblr was like, "Good idea!"

I was also involved in the original Xkit drama.

Before Xkit and New Xkit, there was an extension called Missing E. It was like a proto-Xkit created by Jeremy Cutler. It made the Tumblr user experience like 1000% better. I shouted Missing E from the rooftops and got a ton of people to use it.

Except David Karp was a follower and he did not like Missing E.

He didn't like it one bit.

I don't think he wanted to acknowledge there were things about Tumblr that needed to be improved or fixed. Tumblr started blocking the extension and saying it was a security risk. There was a big protest about that, which I may have stoked the flames of a tiny bit.

I got in trouble for that.

It's weird when a multi-millionaire scolds you.

We started a campaign for Tumblr to give Jeremy a job so he could officially incorporate his improvements into Tumblr. He even got an interview. But he was told his programming skills were mid and they did not hire him. I have no way of judging his coding abilities, but I got the impression he was quite talented. Not to mention Etsy hired him shortly after, so that seems like a pretty good indication.

In any case, Tumblr's treatment of Jeremy kind of took the wind out of his sails, so he stopped developing Missing E and as Tumblr updated more and more it became more and more broken. That's when others started Xkit and then eventually New Xkit. But I decided not to get involved in any new extension drama.

I'm not sure if New Xkit is still in development or not. Though, I'm actually pretty happy with how the stock version of Tumblr operates. I think these Wordpress folks do a pretty good job of running things.

Technical Considerations

Website Builder vs. Custom Development:

Website Builders (Wix, Squarespace, WordPress): Offer ease of use and templates but may have limitations in customization.

Custom Development: Provides maximum flexibility but requires coding skills or hiring a developer.

Hosting: Select a reliable host with sufficient bandwidth to handle traffic and ensure a fast-loading website.

Content Management System (CMS): A CMS like WordPress makes managing your content easier.

Design Execution

Color Palette: Choose colors evoking travel (blues for oceans, greens for nature, etc.). Maintain a balanced and visually appealing scheme.

Typography: Use clear, readable fonts. A hierarchy for headings and body text improves scannability.

White Space: Avoid cluttering. White space allows information to breathe and enhances the design.

Call-to-Actions: Place prominent "Book Now", "Learn More" buttons to guide users through the booking process.

Testing and Launch

Thorough Testing: Test on various devices and browsers. Ask friends and colleagues for feedback.

Launch: Once you're confident, launch your site!

Promotion and Maintenance

Marketing: Utilize SEO, social media, content marketing, and potentially paid advertising to drive traffic.

Updates: Keep content fresh, add new destinations, and enhance features based on user feedback.

WTF Are We Doing Here? (Pinned Intro Post!)

This is my website!

My comments are broken! You know what works slightly better than WordPress comments? Tumblr! My few readers are already here and I'm lookin' for more! So, screw it, time for a side blog!

HEY, TUMBLR! FREE BLORBOS RIGHT HERE! AND NARY A ONCELER AMONG THEM!

"Are they traumatized?" I hear you say. YES! God, yes.

"Are they neurodivergent?" I hear you say. YES! AND SO AM I!

"Do they fuck?" I hear you say. YES! But not here, because the algorithm will eat me if they do. I want to be seen! There will be language and probably violence and queerness and political opinions, but don't get me in fucking trouble, Tumblr. I'm gonna get enough flack for the queerness. I'm very fragile. Be nice.

So! Let me babble for multiple paragraphs trying to explain myself to strangers on the internet, like usual!

This is Milo. If this blog functions the way I want it to, I'll make you some nice reaction images eventually, but Milo in shadow-puppet form will suffice for an example.

Milo says: I don't want to be an example!

Too bad! If you want to talk to Milo, use the ask button and address him by name. He lives in my brain, they all do. I'll get him for you. I'll make him talk.

Milo says: WHAT? *faints*

Well, Milo prefers to communicate in text and images for the time being, so we'll omit the quote marks for him, unless something changes.

Milo says: What? WHAT COULD POSSIBLY CHANGE?

Who knows? It's a very long serialized story and there's lots of character development. That's the fun part! Fixate on, I mean, be very normal about a character and get more and more and more content about them, watch them grow and change and develop relationships, scream at me and at them when you feel like it, and just keep doing that until I get bored or die. What's not to like?

For the moment, I'm the only one working on this story, and I can't afford to hire help, so we're not talking about flawless quality here, but it's free! (Or pay what you want.) So, please,

🌈Lower Your Expectations!🌟

Yay! There are a lot of site issues and there's only so much I'm able to do to fix it. Typos that look like words are my moral enema. If something is so broken you can't read it or understand it, or if I've really hurt you, please drop me a line (via the message box, if it's not for publication) and I'll do what I can. Otherwise, if you like this content and want more, be kind.

I'm autistic and high-masking so you will be speaking to the public-relations version of me. It's as buggy as my site! I'm just gonna be relentlessly positive about everything! Unless I can't. That's not necessarily your fault, but sometimes I can't. So if you're a little ND too, and a lack of response makes you crater - If I don't answer it's probably not because of anything you did. I got a lot on my plate and social ability is always the first thing to go.

Milo says: Preach, Sibling.

The versions of Milo and the others you'll meet will not be the canon versions, nor will their interactions here affect the story. So go nuts!

Milo says: What? No! Be nice to me too!

And, naturally, these versions exist in a context-free void where they can chat happily with strangers from another universe, even if the real ones would freak out and scream

Milo says: You can't mess around with my brain so I can't feel fear! Oh, my gods! I NEED my brain!

No, no. I'm only making sure you don't have an existential crisis due to the context-free void.

Milo says: Oh. Yeah. That's not a big deal. The context-free void has hot chocolate and snacks.

Right, so we're not hurting them. It's fine! It'll be perfectly safe!

Milo says: Yay❤️!

I'll do another post and give you the lowdown on myself and the main cast, including aliases and pronouns. Or, if you've tripped over this out there in your feed, you could always just go read the darn story. It'll take a while. There's a lot of it already. But we'll be here waiting for you! (Don't comment at the site. Are you reading me? You're on Tumblr, you are here to read. Maintain your reading comprehension at all times! The comments are fucking broken.)

WordPress.org vs. WordPress.com: Which One Is Right for You?

WordPress.org and WordPress.com are two distinct platforms for creating and managing websites and blogs. They each have their own advantages and are suited to different needs. Here's a comparison of the two:

WordPress.org (Self-Hosted WordPress):

Hosting: You need to find and pay for your own web hosting to use WordPress.org. This provides complete control over your website.

Customization: You have full freedom to install themes and plugins, allowing for extensive customization. You can create virtually any type of website or blog.

Monetization: You can monetize your website in any way you choose, such as through ads, e-commerce, memberships, and more.

Maintenance: You are responsible for managing updates, security, backups, and other technical aspects. This requires some technical knowledge or hiring someone to do it for you.

Cost: The WordPress software itself is free, but you'll incur costs for web hosting and potentially premium themes and plugins.

WordPress.com (Hosted WordPress):

Hosting: WordPress.com hosts your website on their servers, so you don't need to worry about finding or managing hosting. It's a more beginner-friendly option.

Customization: While you can choose from various themes and customize your site, there are limitations compared to self-hosted WordPress. Advanced customization may require a Business plan.

Monetization: Free and lower-tier plans have restrictions on monetization methods. To have more control over monetization, you'll need a paid plan.

Maintenance: WordPress.com takes care of updates, security, and backups, making it a hassle-free option.

Cost: There's a free plan available, but to access advanced features and customization, you'll need to subscribe to a paid plan.

In summary, if you want complete control, extensive customization options, and are willing to handle technical aspects, WordPress.org is the way to go. It's great for businesses, bloggers, and developers. On the other hand, if you prefer a simpler, managed experience and don't need extensive customization, WordPress.com offers convenience and is suitable for personal blogs, small websites, and those who don't want to deal with hosting and technical details.

How to design Interactive Web Design in best price?

Designing an interactive web design on a budget requires careful planning, creativity, and efficient use of resources. In this guide, I'll provide you with a step-by-step approach to creating an engaging and interactive web design within the best price constraints.

Interactive web design is a powerful tool for creating memorable and effective online experiences that benefit both users and businesses alike. As technology continues to evolve, web designers must keep innovating and adapting interactive elements to cater to the ever-changing expectations of users.

Set Clear Goals and Scope

Before starting any project, define your goals and project scope. Understand the purpose of the Interactive Websites, its target audience, and the specific Interactive Websites elements you want to include. Having a clear vision will help you stay focused and avoid unnecessary expenses.

Choose the Right Platform and Tools

Select a web development platform that aligns with your budget and requirements. Popular cost-effective options include WordPress, Joomla, or using a website builder like Wix or Squarespace. These platforms often come with built-in interactive features and templates that can save you time and money. Utilize free or affordable design tools like Canva or GIMP for graphics and image editing.

Responsive Design

Ensure your web design is responsive, meaning it adapts to different screen sizes and devices. Responsive Interactive Websites design eliminates the need for separate mobile versions, reducing development costs.

Minimalistic Design Approach

Embrace a minimalistic design approach that focuses on simplicity and clean aesthetics. Fewer design elements mean less time spent on development and lower costs. Use negative space effectively and choose a cohesive color palette to create an elegant yet cost-efficient design.

Open-Source Templates and Themes

Explore free and open-source website templates and themes available online. Platforms like WordPress offer a wide range of themes with Interactive Websites elements that can be customized to suit your needs, saving you both time and money.

DIY vs. Hiring Professionals

Assess your skills and expertise in Interactive Websites and development. If you have the required knowledge, consider doing some parts of the design yourself. For complex interactive features, like animations or custom coding, it may be worth hiring freelancers or a web development agency. Compare prices and portfolios to find the best fit for your budget.

Optimize for Performance

Performance optimization is crucial for user experience and search engine rankings. Compress images, minify CSS and JavaScript, and enable caching to reduce loading times. Faster-loading pages often lead to higher engagement and conversion rates with your Interactive Websites.

User-First Approach

Place user experience at the forefront of your design. Ensure that Interactive Websites elements enhance usability and engagement, rather than complicating the navigation. Conduct user testing and gather feedback to refine your design iteratively.

Integrate Social Media

Use social media integrations to increase user engagement and expand your online presence. Social media plugins and sharing buttons can be easily added to your Interactive Websites for little to no cost.

Educational Content and Tutorials

Create educational content and Interactive Websites tutorials that provide value to your audience. Informative videos, infographics, and interactive guides can be cost-effective ways to engage users and establish your expertise.

Continuous Maintenance and Updates

Regularly update and maintain your website to ensure it stays relevant and functional. Promptly fix any bugs or issues that arise to avoid costly repairs in the future.

Therefore creating an interactive web design on a budget requires smart decision-making and resourceful use of available tools and platforms. By following these guidelines and maintaining a user-centric approach, you can design an engaging website without breaking the bank. Remember to regularly evaluate the performance and user feedback to make improvements over time.

Interactive Web Design

Interactive web design refers to the process of creating web pages or applications that engage users and allow them to interact with the content and functionality. The primary goal of interactive web design is to enhance user experience, encourage user participation, and make the website or web application more enjoyable and effective.

Key Elements of Interactive Web Design:

User Interface (UI): The UI is the visual and Interactive Websites elements of the website that users interact with, such as buttons, menus, forms, and navigation. A well-designed UI makes it easy for users to understand and use the website's features.

User Experience (UX): UX focuses on creating a positive and seamless experience for users while they interact with the website. This involves considering user needs, preferences, and behaviors to design intuitive and efficient interactions.

Animation and Transitions: Adding subtle animations and transitions to elements can make the website feel more dynamic and responsive. However, it's essential not to overdo it, as excessive animation can lead to a cluttered and distracting experience.

Responsiveness: Interactive web design should adapt to different devices and screen sizes. This means the website should be mobile-friendly and work well on various devices, including smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers.

Feedback and Validation: Providing real-time feedback to users when they interact with elements like forms or buttons helps them understand their actions and prevents errors. Validation messages for form inputs are crucial to guide users and reduce frustration.

Microinteractions: These are small, subtle interactions that serve a specific purpose, such as liking a post, clicking a button, or expanding a menu. Microinteractions add a sense of delight and engagement to the user experience.

Scroll and Parallax Effects: Scrolling can be used creatively to enhance storytelling or to trigger animations and effects as users move down the page. Parallax effects, where background elements move at a different speed than foreground elements, can create a sense of depth and immersion.

Gamification: Incorporating game-like elements, such as points, badges, or progress bars, can make the website more fun and encourage users to explore and engage with the content.

Multimedia Elements: Using images, videos, audio, and interactive elements like sliders and carousels can make the website more engaging and visually appealing.

Personalization: Tailoring the user experience based on individual preferences and behavior can make the website feel more relevant and user-centric.

Remember that interactive web design should not sacrifice usability and accessibility for the sake of novelty. The goal is to strike a balance between creativity and user-friendliness, ensuring that all visitors can easily interact with and enjoy the website.

Interactive web design is a powerful and essential approach to creating engaging and user-friendly websites. By incorporating interactive elements, such as animations, hover effects, interactive forms, and dynamic content, web designers can enhance the user experience and encourage visitors to stay longer on the site.

One of the key benefits of interactive web design is its ability to create a more memorable and enjoyable browsing experience. Users are more likely to connect with a website that responds to their actions and provides instant feedback. This increased engagement can lead to higher user retention, increased conversions, and improved brand perception.

Furthermore, interactive web design plays a crucial role in keeping up with the ever-evolving digital landscape. As technology advances and user expectations grow, static and traditional web designs may fall short in delivering the desired user experience. By embracing interactive design principles, websites can adapt to various devices and cater to different user preferences, ensuring they remain relevant and competitive in the online space.

Additionally, interactive web design fosters better communication and interaction between businesses and their customers. Through interactive elements like chatbots, feedback forms, and interactive product showcases, companies can gather valuable insights, understand their audience better, and provide personalized solutions to their users' needs.

However, while interactive web design can be highly beneficial, it should be approached with care. Overloading a website with unnecessary animations or complex interactions can lead to slow loading times and a cluttered user interface, which can be counterproductive and frustrating for users. Thus, striking the right balance between functionality, aesthetics, and user-friendliness is crucial.

Interactive web design is a vital component of modern web development that can significantly impact user engagement, brand perception, and business success. By creating dynamic, user-centric, and visually appealing experiences, web designers can elevate their websites and ensure they stay ahead in an increasingly competitive digital world.
