Automattic shaking down the biggest competitor to his hosting business.
But a service disruption like this is bad strategy.
WPEngine runs accounts for many very recognizable brands and large orgs - kinds of clients Matt wants to see switch over.
Given disruptions like this, those clients are far more likely to see Wordpress as unreliable software before their hosting provider.
And Matt might not realize it but almost all of those large accounts already have multiple devs who are _eager_ to migrate away from Wordpress.
1. Based on their github orgs, there is effectively no separation between wordpress.org and Automattic.
2. The core WP contributors trac has a long history of not really being welcome to new contributions. Outside of the design decisions coming from Automattic, third party contributions either die in multi-year deliberations or get directed to the plugin system.
3. The development culture around WP, which largely revolves around the plugin ecosystem - has always trended towards paid plugins over OSS software.

if that's not feasible, a service like FocusMate in your home office.

Entrepreneurship is a story of perseverance being extended long enough to meet luck.
Take time to recover and plan. Then get up try again.
The self-taught route is a viable path but if growth is what you want, the early stages requires more work than most realize.
Things also move much faster if you have frequent 1:1s and keep a log of your wins.
It was fun to work on something outside my day job but it required some judiciousness to ensure I could meet my set time limits.
I found taking on bigger projects + a demanding day job pushed me to burnout pretty quickly.
My advice I give now: start with CS50 and dive deep into all the supplementary reading.
Then build something every day.
Read books, watch videos, take a course. But above all, make sure you can apply it to something real.
