This is highly impressive from a technical standpoint. All back end tech you used to need in a server for now lives in your browser.

I see this as an example of being able to build complex apps in a browser, which are much more portable than system apps.

The AI slop writing is borderline unreadable.

I read 3 'It's not X it's Y' sentences in a span of just 4 sentences total. Unfortunate that this is how they choose to present this product because I think the idea is good, but it seems that it's not interesting enough to WP to justify actually writing about it themselves.

Imagine opting to use Wordpress over a local or desktop app/tool. In theory this is kind of a cool idea, but the bloat of Wordpress is insanely not worth using over.. a .html file.

If collaborative blogging wasn't dying, this would be a cool way to write contributor articles and then share them with an editor. Though I don't know how you would pull out single articles instead of a whole backup.

Anyone's got the latest on Mullenweg's tantrum before I decide if I care? This [1] used to be the place but it got less maintained as time went on. [1] https://gist.github.com/adrienne/aea9dd7ca19c8985157d9c42f7f...

Maybe a celebrity gossip website would suit your interests better than HN?

Yeah I think millionaires should be able to do their shady business in private too, propagating this knowledge is nearly defamation, definitely gossip. Remembering these things and acting with your wallet based on your values and principles goes against everything capitalism stands for.
