Automattic’s new site tracks how many websites left WP Engine following feud with Matt Mullenweg

A new website called WP Engine tracker shows how many sites have moved away from hosting provider WP Engine since the company's feud with WordPress

In the last week, Mullenweg and Automattic filed documents in the court, asking the judge to dismiss some key claims in WP Engine’s case. The company also asked the court to reject WP Engine’s preliminary motion, which, if passed, restores the hosting provider’s access to WordPress.org, a WordPress repository site owned by Mullenweg. Notably, Mullenweg had asked WP Engine to pay 8% of their revenue as a licensing fee for the WordPress trademark in September.
