   I'm surprised anyone still uses wordpress after this whole sh!tshow, but outside HN folks probably don't even know. Just reading about it about it puts me off from the product and company.

      If I had to stop using all the software whose politics I find problematic I would have to earn a living breaking rocks.

         I would expect that a lot of the decisions to avoid it at this point are more focused on how much they can count on the organisations behind the software to maintain it reliably and without becoming hostile than a moral judgement on their actions, though for many it might be both weighing in.

         (OTOH, wordpress has quite a lot of lock-in power, and the risk to a smaller user would seem to be smaller, so I could see why a lot of users decide to stick with it for now).
