I've used WordPress since it was b2. Much of this site—but not this page—is powered by WordPress using a custom theme and plugins that I've written. In 2010 I created a plugin—Open Graph Protocol Tools—still in the WordPress plugin repository. I've enjoyed every WordPress win and suffered every WordPress indignity. I've debugged shortcodes, worked with child themes, used Multisite. Woocommerce, and created themes from scratch. I've been gratified to help people migrate from Blogger FTP to WordPress, and Import Instagram photos to WordPress. And I've tackled the nastiest malware infestations and fixed the most tedious Mojibake problems. Many people dislike WordPress. I like it. (Also, the WordPress CLI is among my favorite development tools).
