Looks like Apple will keep 30% of your private podcast revenue + the $19.99/year in the first year. Moving to 15% of subscribers in year 2+ -- according to their terms.

Tossed *another* domain into the shopping cart and made a pact with myself, “There’s no way you’re gonna let another one of these fuckers renew in a year without doing something with it.”. So I paid for two years.

There are plenty of open source CMS solutions we can turn to, but none create as much opportunity as WordPress has/can — warts and all. WP has seeded great software, communities, careers, and independent voices. I don’t want to see that erode into the ocean of nothingness.

I’ll say it again, in ~3 years visit .org and see “free Wordpress powered by Jetpack”, hosted Wordpress 1-click setup to affiliated EIG host, and “the best way to experience WP at .com”. Displayed in your typical SaaS price grid. Below that in 8pt font: “Download .zip”.

We’re moving (rapidly) towards a perception (reality?) that WordPress is simply the software that Automattic /happens/ to open source. Sorta like how Salesforce happens to open source some components.

WordPress is about feel a lot different for users. While you might not see the changes happening, there’s a groundswell of initiatives in motion. Don’t wake up one day, see a different Admin, and ask “Why did they do that?”. Tune in 👇.

re: a8c. I’m happy you stayed. I’m confident you left — for you. The world is more uncertain every passing day. I won’t judge the decisions you make. WordPress can be for everyone, but it does not define everyone. We are greater than WordPress, even if we’re here for it.

Today marks 1 year at @rocketgenius 🚀. When I'm asked if I like my role, the answer is, no, I love my role. I get to create content that educates, informs, and entertains our customers. I stay connected with my WordPress friends. I get to use a product I love. What a time!.

After a year of not logging into YouTube to look at my channel, Google sent me the first $100 in Adsense revenue. "Yay." I thought, then logged into my account. To my surprise my channel had grown to 2k subs without any new videos. Organic search was real 👍 #tweet100.

Not sure @dhh realizes it, but he spoke for hundreds if not thousands of WordPress community members that have had similar questions for @photomatt spanning the last few years. Most aren’t afforded the same opportunity or carry the same clout to have it.

The mission to create “The ideal way to experience WordPress” puts great humans at odds with other great humans. I believe a majority of the work by the Jetpack team is done with good intent, but minimizes the juggernaut they wield in the ecosystem.

Whether you agree with him or not, you should appreciate how @mor10 articulates the deep-rooted *human* problems we face as a WordPress community. Clear communication & direction -- from many sides (<--sucks saying that) -- is needed.
