Response to DHH

This is currently flagged, but I don't think it should be.

Yes, it's unlikely to result in any constructive discussion here. At best we could remark that the author appears to be unwell and that taking this down could save him some face.

However, the author is also an adult who is capable of taking responsibility for their own actions. In addition they are presenting themselves genuinely and sincerely here, which IMO is an important consideration for anyone who uses or is thinking about using WordPress.

So yes, it's drama, but it's highly relevant drama to people who are making decisions of what stacks to build on. This is information that people to deserve to have, even if, perhaps, it's not the interpretation that the author intended to evoke.

The linked blog post seems to have been deleted

This seems to have been edited already, it's missing some ad hominem attacks and the recommendation to see a therapist which were definitely present when this article was linked.
