You make an opensource project, provide hosting services, then others take your project, modify it for their needs, cut into your hosting market share and then you try to get rid of them. ...What was the end game plan?
What a terrible take WordPress.com is only successful in the first place because WordPress was open source and had so many hosting options Also what do you mean it was modified? WPE didn't fork or modify WordPress any more than other hosts
We agree on both points, so I don't get what the bad take was.
