WPengine is a piece of shit service preying on entry level WP users and mediocre developers without the skills to avoid getting locked on a platform that makes money out of their limitations and ignorance.

It offers nothing of value and now they are acquiring elemental plug-ins like ACF to have a stronger grip on WP installations.

I hated them 10 years ago. It took too long to expose what they really are: freeloaders taking advantage of both the ignorant and the open source community.

There seems to be a problem with the use of naming rights here. It's a big problem for users.
