Keep up the great work @fair.pm 💪. Looks like it bothers the WP co-founder! He hasn’t learned from his mistakes : how childish! How embarassing for the WP community! What a lack of « leading by example ». I was definitively right when I quited it.

Pour « Spectra », si elle nécessite des fonctionnalités de WP que Retraceur a sorti (commentaires, customizer, xml/rpc, etc..) elle ne sera pas compatible. Retraceur est un fork, il trace un chemin éthique & différent de WP, il ne s’agit pas d’une alternative à « Fair » qui permet un WP + juste 2/2

Hello, merci pour tes tests. Le répertoire des extensions/thèmes de WP ne seront pas intégrés, car il s’agit de progressivement constituer des répertoires de thèmes, extensions, blocs et langues pour Retraceur. Je me doutais que « Fair » était incompatible (elle ne cible pas les forks de WP) 1/2
