1 yearHelium was interesting, but they locked it down so you can only use their proprietary hardware for access points, it seems kinda scammy.

RobotToaster@mander.xyztoProgramming@programming.dev•The ongoing feud between Wordpress and WP Engine is threatening open-source principles and good name
2 yearsI’m not aware of any method to add a third party plugin repository. (Is the software that runs the plugin repository even open source?)

RobotToaster@mander.xyztoProgramming@programming.dev•The ongoing feud between Wordpress and WP Engine is threatening open-source principles and good name
2 yearsNot easily, honestly.
WordPress on its own is very bare bones, you’re almost certainly going to want to install plugins, which by default can only be done from the builtin connection to WP servers.
WP without plugins doesn’t even have basic things like gallery light boxes. Honestly it seems deliberate, since the easiest way to get a lot of basic features that should be in core is to install the automattic(the company that owns wordpress) jetpack extension, that also installs a bunch of data harvesting connections to their proprietary SaaS.

RobotToaster@mander.xyztoProgramming@programming.dev•Dumb question: how do I know if an open source project is trustworthy?
2 yearsPersonally I wouldn’t trust it.
First red flag🚩: there’s an “enterprise” self hosted version.
Second red flag🚩: It isn’t open source, the licensing structure is confusing 🚩, but it appears to be at best some mix of source available🚩 and open core🚩 (core available?).
