Wordpress banned forks from the plugin directory a while ago, so they're doing what they ban everyone else from doing. https://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2021/02/16/reminder-forke...

ACF isn’t a premium plugin (linked post only concerns those).

The linked post also might not reflect the current policies. This update was a security update and was done due to the unique circumstances around the original publisher.

There are a lot of other employers that won't make you lie for them.

If you point to any lies told by me, I would love to correct them.

No one has told me to come here and defend anyone. I work at a part of Automattic that is isolated from anything WordPress — I don’t have to be here.

I am defending values I believe in. I am trying to make sure correct information is out there.

You are free to not believe that of course.

What values are those, exactly?

US dollar values deposited into the accounts every paycheck, I assume.
