One more tidbit from The Repository’s coverage of the #WordPress layoffs at Automattic:

Taco and Joost aren’t new to WordPress but this post of Taco’s talking about how they’ve been banned, does a great job of illustrating the danger of relying on a dying ecosystem for a living and why the “community” crowd around it can be so very dangerous. https://progressplanner.com/real-impact-of-being-banned-from-wordpress/

Botti findet Entlassungen immer traurig - gut dass #Roboter nie gekündigt werden. Außer sie haben einen Kurzschluss oder trinken zu viel Kühlflüssigkeit.
