You mean they won't have to deal with hosting, 99% of Wordpress users don't look at the source code, same with Ghost, Drupal, Silverstripe, etc.

- z3t4 10y agoDo you think Wordpress would make more or less money if they where open/closed source ?
- disordinary 10y agoI think they probably wouldn't be in business if they were closed source. They built a business on top of an open source product which already existed (but was created and maintained by the CEO of Wordpress) that open source platform allows them to claim that they run 25% of the internet with the consequent brand awareness and ecosystem.
