With the recent feud between WP Engine and Wordpress’ owner Matt Mullweng, and Matt’s outspoken and firm stance to make WPEngine business enemy #1 by banning WP Engine and anyone associated with them from logging in to the main Wordpress websites, many WP Engine customers are switching off WP Engine now to avoid issues, which is understandable.
Many People Avoiding the WP vs WPEngine Drama
This is a battle most people don’t want to be involved in, and that makes sense. To even log in to Wordpress.com now, you have to check a box that says you have nothing to do with WP Engine! How crazy is that! Seeing this play out is pretty crazy, if you haven’t seen it on Twitter/X, check it out for some entertainment. People are getting banned left and right for defending WP Engine in any way, even people who maintain the WP project. Many employees have even resigned, it’s really wild.
