With kind regards,

Thank you for being a thoughtful leader and innovator. Your contributions and ideas have had profound positive influence in the world and on my life both personally and professionally. I’ve very much enjoyed the podcast interviews with Tim Ferriss, though I have to say, I still use swear words and have not been able to successfully fast. Wink. Wink. I know you are very thoughtful in how you walk through this world and it is refreshing and wonderful. Big hugs and lots of love to you today and always! And to your mom!

We’re all behind you sir.

Also, I am glad most reporters did not run with the story. You might be many things Matt (& I do have some strong disagreements with you), but I have never once thought you or anyone in your family as being bigots.

Also, if WP Engine goes feral tries to slander your mother, then the geek community will go after them as family should not be dragged into these legal disputes.

Take care, & be blessed!

I’ve been thinking about her, especially as my mom had some health complications last year (she’s recovering well now though). Here’s to many more opportunities to celebrate with them.

I care for everyone, but I know that sometimes people aren’t themselves when money is involved. I’ll also say that anyone who targets a mother and uses that for any reason has to be a certain kind of person.

My name is Rene Ornelas, and I have had the privilege of knowing this incredible family for 27 years. As a first-generation Mexican American, whose family hails from Monterrey, Mexico, I have experienced firsthand the unconditional love and kindness they have shown me.

From the very beginning, the Mullenweg’s welcomed me as if I were a member of their own family. I consider Matt Mullenweg my brother and Kathleen my second mother—‘Momma,’ as I affectionately call her. Kathleen has been a constant source of love and support, always sending prayers and checking in on me, especially given the dangers of my job as a Houston firefighter. She cares for my children as if they were her own grandchildren, offering me invaluable motherly advice that has helped me through many challenges in life.

Matt, a man of the highest integrity, has been shaped by his parents’ example. He is one of the most loving, loyal, and selfless friends I’ve ever known. It’s beyond frustrating to see people attempting to tarnish the reputation of such a remarkable family with false accusations. These claims are not only untrue but completely absurd.

The Mullenwegs are the epitome of what it means to be a loving, caring, and inclusive family. They have always demonstrated generosity and acceptance, embracing everyone without bias. It’s deeply upsetting to see them attacked in this way, and that’s why I felt compelled to speak out.

This family’s integrity and kindness are beyond reproach, and I will always stand by them. They are, in every way, a shining example of love, compassion, and selflessness.

It’s sad to see how r/wordpress has gone down the the drain with juvenile comments like “u/photomatt is a dodohead” getting like 100 upvotes, meanwhile even the moderators are getting downvoted en masse for trying to stay impartial.

Anyway, I’m sure it will all work out for you. Wish you and your mom all the best.

Really not trying to be a jerk, but they are built off other peoples unpaid work.

I’m sure she realizes how fortunate she is to have a son like you. Stay strong, Matt. There are plenty of us in your corner.

Take care!

Sounds like typical American opportunist behavior.
Glad to hear you sorted this out!

Bringing up accusations like this is going too far. Sorry you had to deal with that. Speculating on your mental health/etc. is also in bad taste. And I’m saying this as someone who has been a vocal critic.

It’s disheartening, especially when it feels like people are constantly bombarding you with false statements and hate. Envy and anger can make the world feel twisted, but I believe empathy, even though it’s rare, has the power to heal.

It’s tough to deal with everything when it’s coming at you nonstop. Just remember that protecting your mental health is so important. Stay strong and know that you’re not alone in this. Surround yourself with kindness whenever you can, it makes a real difference.

Lastly, I’m so glad to hear your mom is doing better. She’s been there for you all these years, and now you’re doing an amazing job protecting and supporting her, just like she did for you. Keep that love and strength going, it’s a special bond.

It’s admirable that you’ve chosen to fight these baseless claims and not give in. Your advice is invaluable to other founders who might encounter similar challenges. On a brighter note, it’s heartwarming to hear about your mom’s improved health and the supportive environment you’ve created for her. Wishing you both continued strength and happiness!

I’m a former open-source founder and all these people leeching off your work need to toe the line. If they can’t then they should build their own WordPress(obviously that’s beyond their competence).

Only you know the troubles you endured before WordPress gained traction. It’s after you succeeded that these sickos decided to claim your hardwork as their own.
