@stkjj @mwabilimwagodi @KaranjaMatindi Isn't it amazing how Lars Windhorst, German Wunderkind and protegee by chancellor Kohl, kept finding investors? Somehow that is a remarkable talent. Or a confirmation that we in Germany like to fall for guys like Benko, Real Estate Schneider and Windhorst.

@stkjj @KenyanSays Better than waiting for an earthquake.

@stkjj @PrairieBuilders Since when is snoring a performance that people want to see, let alone pay for? 😴😉

@ajaydsouza This happens frequently if users are focused on the issue they want to solve and don’t care about the efforts others make to provide support. Sometimes they ask on several forums hoping for faster solutions. Sometimes users solve the problem themselves and even forget they asked.

@chip_bennett @JJ__indy Due to complications during the birth, my wife and our daughter would both have died without a caesarean section. It wasn't even my wife's decision. How dare anyone say that she failed?

@DuaneStorey … or translators, volunteers in the support forums, organizers and speakers at WordCamps and meetups worldwide, a11y advocates, etc.

@DuaneStorey @chip_bennett @CaseySoftware Perhaps we continue our conversation in six month in a Drupal chat room? 😁 Who knows… 😅

[pixolin @pixolin]

@DuaneStorey @chip_bennett @CaseySoftware There's a lot I didn't understand about how Matt ran A8c and how https://t.co/bDlDhlUlqk tried to attract users. If “dinky personal sites” is the business model, he's probably served his customers well. It wasn't my place to judge and I don't want to start that now.

[pixolin @pixolin]

@CaseySoftware @chip_bennett @WordPress Well. Things have turned out very differently and we would probably all have continued to spend our energies arguing about Gutenberg if Matt hadn't betrayed his loyal community so badly over the last three months. 💔

@mikehale @photomatt @automattic This—or he runs an app store for plugins/themes and a yearly plan to access the documentation. Contributors get tokens for free access the documentation.

🤪

[pixolin @pixolin]

@chip_bennett @CaseySoftware @WordPress Same in the https://t.co/YbucEloFCI support forums.
People google for "WordPress help" and are happy if they find a form field to paste the error message which drives them nuts. I never had a problem with that, but we always kindly asked them to visit the .com-forums.

@takisbig Could that be a further step to finally announce a yearly plan for access to the WordPress repositories and documentation for all website owners and developers?

[pixolin @pixolin]

@Storm_Barnicle @ckmontague @photomatt I agree it's pure speculation. Fear mongering wasn't intended.

Theme developers already have a hard time. If you decide to go the FSE path, you can basically set up any layout yourself (given you are not an absolute beginner).

[pixolin @pixolin]

@Storm_Barnicle Ya, maybe. But getting louder.

[pixolin @pixolin]

@Storm_Barnicle @ckmontague @photomatt Visiting a WordCamp costs about 1,000 € – flight, hotel, food, tickets, SIM card… Giving a session at meetups is less expensive as it's only travel costs and using your own equipment. If you volunteer you should consider you could have earned money in that time, too.

@ryanwebdev @tessak22 They are awesome, especially with the noise cancelling—as long as I don't move or yawn. Then they fall like raisins out of my ear. Is that just me?

@alvarogois @Wonderm00n @Bovelett @Tom_Voltz1 Futuristic. 👍🏻 Now soome catering with Pastel de nata and we are all booked.
German railway (Deutsche Bahn) has become so bad, that we believe everything in the world must be better. Riding on the roof of trains is still an exception though.

[pixolin @pixolin]

@alvarogois @Bovelett @Tom_Voltz1 @Wonderm00n time travel in 50's train sound so romantic 😉

[pixolin @pixolin]

@ckmontague @Storm_Barnicle @photomatt Apparently Matt has already declared Game over.
