  • It’s not about being “butt hurt” it’s about consequences for abusive behaviors. I don’t think people who abuse their moderation powers and status should be rewarded with free advertisement on the place they committed their abuse.

    I think that this community needs to change its displayed rules, since it seems that it does not apply to the moderators:

    Please be nice to other members. Anyone not being nice will be banned. Keep it fun, respectful and just be awesome to each other.

  • Congrats. You made the argument that popular == good.

    WooCommerce also has an extensive extension list, integrations with all the payment providers out there and it’s easy to get help / support be it free or payed

    This is WordPress’ biggest selling point, but it is also its biggest downfall. The vast majority of those “extensions” (plugins) are horribly made and are security nightmares, then they often only get you 90% of what you need so they can sell you the last 10% for a subscription fee. How would you know how to determine which ones are good or not? You need to be experienced enough with WordPress.

    Yes, it is easy to get support, particularly paid (not “payed” FYI) but again, since WordPress is so popular, it’s prime real-estate for shitty “”“WordPress Developers”“” (not actually developers) to essentially bait people into their scam of pretending they are actually developers and providing work that leaves you worse off.

    How do I know all of this? Well I happen to work with WordPress professionally as the lead developer for an agency where I manage literally hundreds of WordPress sites and host all of them myself on servers I manage for them (not shared hosting reselling).
