22:09 The idea of a single “leaker” rather than multiple whistleblowers who care deeply about open source and WordPress is a laughable interpretation.

There was a self-confessed leaker and leaks have noticeably reduced since their departure.

Welp. Some of this interview will make it into the case as evidence. What a mess. Matt, no one is making me disagree with you. I just do because you’re wrong.

I think Matt has a valid point, if you’re benefiting from WordPress, give back in some way. But to force a company to give back, that’s against the spirit of open source.

She asked if he sold the shares in WP-Engine unwillingly. He said “yeah …”. Just curious if that is how it works, I doubt it. He was FORCED to sell the shares? I was more or less in his side until the takeover of the ACF slug. But I also did not know how big and powerful he actually was and how he has set himself up as a dictator in the WP ecosystem and that his company is funded by Black Rock …
I admire how Ghost is setup, its 100% non-profit. The way it should be.
@davelockie9184

From what I understand, minority shareholders typically have drag/tag along clauses. Worth reading up on if you want to understand that dynamic.
Blackrock are a minority shareholder and don’t have voting rights; that’s a pretty big difference to their control over WPE.

Interesting interview… Did they try to rile up their customers? For me, it felt the other way around because the community was dragged into this and asked to vote with their wallets and so forth. However, I am not a WP customer (at least directly, but indirectly as I own ACF Pro bought from Elliot), nor do I subscribe to any WP Engine newsletters or anything, so maybe I missed those attempts.
@nickm1049
November 1, 2024 at 9:27 am
Matt started by riling up community members at Wordcamp and for a few weeks that weaponisation of the community seemed to work…until WPE filed the lawsuit and people could read what Matt had done and then he hijacked ACF and lost most of the support imo. Matt seems very much a “do as I say, not as I do” kind of guy

Ha! I myself thought that WP Engine was WordPress. I’ve always been so confused about it. I have to say that hearing this interview, in spite of (what I thought was) bias towards WPEngine on the part of the interviewer, I’m solidly in support of WordPress. You go, Matt! The time for vulture companies preying on others must come to an end.

@davidcoveney

So wait a sec…Matt was an investor in WPEngine, was apparently open about it, profited personally from the returns and the exit, but it wasn’t enough so more is wanted to go into his private equity firm and not the actual project.
I’d love to know what Richard Stallman thinks.
