As spotted by @DuaneStorey on X, the “WP Engine Tracker” says more than 16,000 sites stopped using WP Engine since late September, which is when WordPress.com parent company Automattic started its public campaign against the third-party hosting service. Meanwhile, Automattic’s response to WP Engine’s lawsuit claimed the company “failed to plausibly allege specific financial harm.”

    To be fair, I’d move away from Wordpress entirely. So many better options out there without tyrannical leadership.

        I’d say check out this site: https://selfh.st/apps/?tag=Blog

        There’s a number on there. I’ve personally used Grav, I hear ghost and Hugo are good. They’re more limited, but they’re much faster and more secure. As someone who had to support Wordpress blogs for years, the amount of security issues on that thing always made me stay far from it for any thing personal.
