Trying to understand the drama around WordPress…

December 23, 2024 | My Projects | By: Mark VandeWettering

I’ve used the open source version of WordPress for some twenty years. In general, I’ve been pretty happy, although not without some misgivings, mostly technological, but increasingly ideological as well. There has been a trend over the last few years where the conflict between open source software and commercial entities has become seemingly problematic. For the modest purpose of my blog, I’m merely considering finding a less problematic bit of software to use, but I found this video on Youtube that attempts to explain the controversy. In 2025, I think finding a less popular/less problematic platform will be something that I try to do. What do you all think?
