Replying to @stevemarkperry
The sad part is that this whole debacle is easily resolved: get w.org transitioned to community governance, and establish clear, non-arbitrary infra cost sharing. Decouple w.org as a single POF by open sourcing the plugin/update systems.

This is absolutely insane and such a disgusting abuse of power by @photomatt. I have clients using @wpengine and now they can't easily install plugins or update themes. #WordPress
I want to share: WordPress.org has blocked @wpengine customers from updating and installing plugins and themes via WP Admin—disrupting essential work for #WordPress users, agencies, freelancers, and plugin developers. Please read: wpenginestatus.com/incidents…

Buc-ee’s is truly a monstrosity. A convenience store so large it becomes the most inconvenient shopping experience imaginable. Even the name defies convenience. Autocorrect almost begs you not to find one or speak of this Godless temple of man’s excess. 5 stars

An extra innings walk-off 2-run home run on the first pitch does it! PB gets the win (and is a very good boy!) #SGDQ2024
