Either the industry has changed dramatically, people have changed or there’s something truly odd going on at Automattic. There is a Reddit user right now: https://www.reddit.com/user/r_mutt1917/ https://www.reddit.com/user/r_mutt1917/ They’re making some very rude statements about the people who accepted the severance package. Not too long ago, there was this unspoken rule amongst humans where we don’t trash a large group of former coworkers in public like that. We wouldn’t speak in absolutes about large groups of people. We had class. And now I see this person who has trashed everyone who left. They apparently aren’t allowed to state what division they’re in. But trashing over 100 people seems to be okay. I cannot imagine a single functional organization approving of such a thing. I haven’t used Wordpress in a very long time. But I had a lot of respect for Automattic. My hope is that I don’t have to keep the verb in the past tense. Somewhere along the lines, we lost a lot of our humanity. It is very embarrassing to think that we traded humanity for social media likes.
