Na, in your case you're probably better off staying where you're at given the costs of switching.

Oh that's right you're on Android aren't you?

YOu can import all your data in.

(1) Don't use Chrome. It's blocking adblockers at this point. (2) this one isn't a paid extension, it's free. (3) Use Firefox or Opera or anything other than Chrome unless it's for work.

Yes. Best adblocker on the planet.

Happy birthday Rick!

I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that mentioning WordPress isn't a violation of the trademark. I have no idea if WPE is using the logo at all, but honestly I'm having a hard time believing that they've been doing their thing for 10+ years and Matt is just now getting around to sorting any trademark issues.

Jaw … On floor. Wow.

I think I technically have a WPCom blog but I never use it.

Oh I don't have anything with Automattic except my WPCom account which basically hosts a reader from which I need to extract my feeds.

I didn't realize you used to work for WPE how's come you never fixed any of my shit lol!

What did I miss?

Yeah I've been seeing your posts and you're in my thoughts/prayers I'm sure it's been really rough.

Having a belly full of rice, beans, meat and veggies, and being sleepy.

@chris Oh definitely I don't mean to imply that there's ever been some sort of WordPress eutopia.

Yes that would be awesome.

@kraftner I still love WordPress in some ways, it's been a significant part of my career and for a long time has meant the difference between being part of the 80% unemployed U.S. blind and part of the 20% employed, and of course there are people like Chris and others who I would have never met without WordPress. But since 2018 or so the shine wore off and things just went bad with the project itself. And the whole thing still makes me a bit sad.

@kraftner Oh yes +1000 to Thomas's comments. And yeah I hear you on the apologists.

@chris Let me put it this way. In some ways there have been improvements, such that I can complete tasks with a screen reader, however inefficiently. I still find myself switching to the code editor whenever I can, and it's getting to the point where there are some things that can't be completed with the code editor. And finally, none of this is the fault of the WordPress Accessibility Team, it's leadership's. And these are just the accessibility complaints, I haven't even touched on the other stuff.

Ug.
