- There is just so much wrong with this @photomatt Do you not understand how this impacts #WordPress? Do you not understand how many contributors have a relationship with @wpengine? #mindblown
- I joined PostStatus. @photomatt called me out for "doxxing" him in my Medium article by sharing the DMs he sent me containing a legal threat for speaking openly on his actions. This is the discussion that unfolded. #wpdrama #WordPress #WordPressWars
- Wild take from self professed domain nerd @photomatt considering his petty acquisition of thesis.com at $100k USD to spite @pearsonified and spending allegedly $19m to acquire the .blog TLD under cover. #WordPress #WordPressWars #wpdrama #icann #domains
- Tell me you're dealing with a misogynist without telling me you're dealing with a misogynist:
- No, I wasn't kidding. The whole point of Blind is to protect people's identity, but at Automattic now you have to out yourself to Matt in order to gain access. So weird man. #automattic #wpdrama @WordPressFirst he shuts down Anonymattic, then his blocks employees from signing up to @TeamBlind and now he wants to control the one space where people can get the support for their post traumattic stress relief? @SlackHQ #wordpress #wpdrama #whyyousoobsessed #slack

- You cannot make this shit up. Matt Mullenweg tried to spend $500k+ to get @kendricklamar to record a WP Engine dis track. Excellent use of investor money right there folks. #WordPress #WordpressDRAMA #peakcringe
- Matt Mullenweg tweeting through it behind the official @wordpress acct. What gross sexist language to use. An embarrassment to any brand, but gosh golly me if this kind of stuff doesn’t kill his “nice guy” image as a bonus. #wordpressterrorism #wpdrama
