Resumen del State of the Word 2025: un año de WordPress marcado por la #IA y el #WPdrama: www.mejorcms.com/wordpress/re...
La ponencia de @Matt Mullenweg comenzó por lo que importa, la inmensa cuota de mercado de la que WordPress goza, un 43% es un absoluto logro…

I'll say this louder for those in the back: #WordPress "5 for the Future" **cannot** be reformed or rescued without tearing up its foundation: it exists for the wrong reasons. Stop trying to fix it--tear it down and re-evaluate completely. #wpdrama

Some people did a thing for the #wordpress community coming out of the #wpdrama - I'm proud of the work they did and thankful for the privilege of working with this team! www.therepository.email/aspirepress-...

I've been thinking quite a lot about why @ma.tt's actions about all this has bothered me so and it all came together this past week. I was writing about it and then the news of FAIR broke - and bam.

Many have called for Mullenweg to step down or be removed from the project. That's not going to happen. In what may be the longest con in open source history we've all learned he controls it all. Making him *irrelevant* to the project is the next best thing. #wpdrama #wpterrorism

Backed by the @linuxfoundation.org and hundreds of contributors the project was coordinated by @joost.blog and @marucchi.com with an all-star technical steering committee of @ipstenu.org @cdils.bsky.social and @rmccue.io. This is a huge step in a great direction #wpdrama #WCEU2025

The amended lawsuit accuses Matt Mullenweg of leading a “nuclear war” against WP Engine that harmed hundreds of thousands of customers, as a second business owner joins the case.

Bump that stereo. Guess who is back.
My own private idiot who blames me for being banned for harassment, and decided the best way to prove me wrong is to (check notes) harass me.

It's truly astonishing how far @ma.tt will go to paint himself as the victim and claim the moral high ground. Using the death of #PopeFrancis seems a weird flex. www.linkedin.com/posts/kellie...

TIL That Automattic P2 has a neat new feature! Last year they added nearly invisible watermarks which are unique to each employee. Cool, cool, cool. Other collaboration platforms have it. But... they didn't announce it. #wpdrama #wordpressterrorism #trustnoone

Worth remembering how many people in senior roles left during the first buyout as well. The brain drain at Automattic / Wordpress.com is real. #wpdrama

2/3 The feedback process at Automattic is BROKEN by design. There is no employee evaluation process. Feedback is not enforced/many team leads fail to do it at all.
The "inflated feedback" claim is just spin to try to keep up the pretense that senior leadership has a clue.

Vibe at Automattic post this morning's town hall, where Mullenweg finally resurfaced a week after laying off 16% of his company: Not great. Not confident.
- Psychological safety obliterated
- Job searches initiated
Leaderships excuse of "feedback inflation" is patently false. 🧵 #wpdrama

Has a8c reached the stage where they are combing through Slack data in prep for discovery and Mullenweg took this as an opportunity to root out any lingering dissenters from his midst by doing sentiment analysis in the private channels and DMs of his employees? Wouldn't surprise me one bit. #wpdrama

I wouldn’t go that far, but we did call it the Matt Mullenweg Survivor Support Group for a while. Once you’re out of Automattic you realize how much manipulation and BS you’ve been thru. Quite healing to learn you’re not alone.

Screen capture of BlindApp conversation indicating that after laying off 16% of his company Matt Mullenweg has logged off and not been present or answering questions
Yikes. I truly hope this isn’t the case. If it is true this is a new low for him. I shouldn’t expect different since last time he invited people to leave he was MIA for the rest of the week too. Leaving dozens of people in limbo. #wpdrama #wordpressterrorism #billionaireproblems

The surprise layoffs have hit around 280 employees across 90 countries. Former employees say trust has eroded as confidence in Mullenweg’s leadership fades.

And look at all those job openings.
automattic.com/jobs/
Mismanagement at its very best and yet Mullenweg will not be held responsible because the investors allowed him to keep voting rights.
Quit investing in companies you do not get a say in managing.

Mullenweg is the worst "leader" I've ever worked for. Coward.
After sticking through the tumult of the past six months these folks are getting pathetic severance, pledged "resources" are empty, and as has become de rigueur in tech - the found out from an email.

hi @team-blind.bsky.social - remember me from Twitter and that Automattic CEO blocking/monitoring signup convo?
Thin he's brigading/coordinating abusive flagging. Multiple people indicate that their posts have been removed due to community flagging.

Does the Wordpress community ever tire of Matt Mullenweg lying to and gaslighting them? Asking for a friend.
A thread.

Yes, I'm still here. Mostly staying off social media to protect my mental health, but also getting into the swing of a new job I started back in December. That being said, still keeping an eye on #wpdrama, and still thinking about Manga+Press' future.

Seems like Mr. "We're going to have a major recording artist at our 2025 Grand Meetup" has had a change of heart. Matt Mullenweg has cancelled the Automattic GM amid rumors that financials are "dire". #wpdrama #wordpressterrorism

Not looking to pick a fight here, but is it just me or does Human Made's Enterprise #WordPress analysis feel just a little tone-deaf to #wpdrama in the ecosystem? It's beautifully designed & has some excellent trend analysis, but the room contains an unaddressed elephant. wpbiz.dev/news/human-m...

More doublespeak from unhinged Mullenweg in a personal attack on @joost.blog
= CoC violation? #wordpress #wpdrama
Mullenweg bars Joost de Valk from speaking at WordCamp Asia, saying he feels Joost "stabbed" him when he was down. searchenginejournal.com/wordpress-le... via @sejournal.bsky.social
