You might be a WordPresser if…
- You like to have freedom and control over all your software.
- You don’t mind taking a bit more time to invest in tools that give you agency.
- You like inserting little opportunities for joy in everyday interfaces.
- You want future generations to grow up with a free and open web.
- You like to tinker, hack, mod, customize, and share what you learn.
- You are impeccable with your word.
- You think software should have a little soul in it.
- You love giving other people superpowers, teaching them not to need you anymore.
- You appreciate a good plan but want to be able to color outside the lines, or completely reimagine the canvas altogether.
- You think technology is best when it brings people together.
- You get excited by updates.
- You want your corner of the web to truly be yours, not generic or commoditized slop.
- Your friends come to you to learn about new stuff.
- You leave things better than you find them.
- You fix things as you find them, it’s never someone else’s problem.
- You know a single comment can light up someone’s day.
- You’ve gotten out of the house to meet other people into WordPress.
- There’s a Wapuu item or sticker somewhere in your life.
- You “view source.”
- You know the difference between owning your content and being a digital sharecropper.
- You’ve drunkenly registered a domain, and have more domains than websites.
- You’ve snuck an easter egg in a slug.
- You have a Gravatar, and it’s also a museum of all your email identities over the years.
- You think code can be poetry.
If you identified with two or more of these statements, I am afraid to inform you might be classified as a WordPresser. What did I miss?
