The Grokipedia version is much, much longer, and does a better job of listing my accomplishments versus some random recent controversy. (Will someone reading about me a hundred years from now care that WordPress briefly had a sustainability team as one of its dozens of teams?) But at least everything on Wikipedia is true! On Grokipedia:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>WooCommerce, an open-source e-commerce platform integrated with WordPress, enables online stores and has facilitated over $1 trillion in annual commerce as of 2023.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While I actually believe someday, probably around 2037, Woo will facilitate a trillion in commerce annually, that number is off by a couple orders of magnitude right now. <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\ud83d\ude42\" class=\"wp-smiley\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f642.png\"><\/p>\n<p>As with all software, we shouldn\u2019t come to conclusions <a href=\"https:\/\/ma.tt\/2010\/11\/one-point-oh\/\">based on the 1.0<\/a> but rather look to its vector and speed of iteration, so I\u2019ll reserve judgment on Grokipedia for now.<\/p>\n<p>I <em>love<\/em> Wikipedia. I\u2019ve been a contributor since it started, and I think it embodies Open Source ideals in a really beautiful way. For a little love letter to Wikipedia check out this article by Jason Koebler, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.404media.co\/grokipedia-is-the-antithesis-of-everything-that-makes-wikipedia-good-useful-and-human\/\">Grokipedia Is the Antithesis of Everything That Makes Wikipedia Good, Useful, and Human<\/a>. My take: If you think there\u2019s something wrong with the Wikipedia, the way to fix it is to get involved and contribute. They have a robust community.<\/p>\n<p>As a bonus, I learned today that the <a href=\"https:\/\/wikimediafoundation.org\/\">Wikimedia Foundation runs on WordPress<\/a>! What an honor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s very interesting to compare my Wikipedia article and my Grokipedia article.
