Rui Carlos Posted September 30, 2024 at 04:48 PM Report #633568 Posted September 30, 2024 at 04:48 PM Citação WordPress on Wednesday escalated its conflict with WP Engine, a hosting provider, by blocking the latter's servers from accessing WordPress.org resources – and therefore from potentially vital software updates. [...] Many WordPress users rely on several plugins. Preventing WP Engine users from accessing plugin updates is therefore serious, as it could mean users can't update plugins that have security issues, or other fixes. [...] Fonte: https://www.theregister.com/2024/09/26/wordpressorg_denies_service_to_wp Mais um projecto open source a ir por um caminho pouco recomendável. Rui Carlos Gonçalves
Rui Carlos Posted October 15, 2024 at 12:26 PM Author Report #633603 Posted October 15, 2024 at 12:26 PM Este assunto teve mais alguns desenvolvimentos, um simplesmente parvo, em que o WordPress.org exigir confirmação que não se tem afiliação com o WP Engine quando se faz login, e outro um pouco mais sério, em que a WordPress basicamente se apropriou do plugin Advanced Custom Fields, o que me parece que passa de todos os limites aceitáveis. Já há uns anos que me tenho andado a afastar do WordPress por razões técnicas (há soluções mais simples para muitos use cases), mas agora parece-me que o WordPress é uma plataforma mesmo a evitar. Algumas opiniões sobre o assunto: Is Matt Mullenweg defending WordPress or sabotaging it?
