Coen JacobsI've been contemplating to write this post for months. The reason I haven't is the exact thing I want to write about. And that's just silly. So here goes: Fear of voicing the unpopular opinion within the WordPress ecosystem https://coenjacobs.com/blog/fear-voicing-unpopular-opinion-within-wordpress-ecosystem/
Ross Wintle@coenjacobs This is very good. Thank you. I do have very good reasons for keeping opinions to myself. The one I will talk about is that I see no point. I don’t think what I say or do will influence the project. I’ve believed that for a long time. So I talk about other things where I can have a positive influence.
@ross Fair enough. While at the same time, isn't this the same form of self-censorship that I'm talking about, although stemming from a different emotion and/or feeling?
Ray Gulick, he/him/wtf 🇺🇦 ❌👑Ross works for WP Engine, so he's already in the 'enemy camp.'
@rgulick @coenjacobs That’s the main “good reason” to keep my opinions to myself.
