@ben Surely it has nothing to do with his wildly antagonistic and trust-destroying behaviour towards major contributors to the Wordpress ecosystem. /s
To put it more plainly, this is just gaslighting by a shortsighted techbro who torched his own reputation by attacking his own software’s open source community. The wider point _might_ also have some merit, but in this _specific_ case its just not a proximal cause for Wordpress’ recent decline.
