@jalefkowit @wardrup Just to clarify: this is about wordpress.com, but most people using Wordpress as CMS free system, not on wordpress.com @wardrup @jalefkowit much less than 1% of all users will understand, and care, and change. The company understands their market and the outrage cost was factored. It’s good these users leave. Because they will boost other content systems. Much like a small percentage of Reddit users boosted masterdon! So, it’s actually healthy for the web the whole thing is happening. |
