Mullenweg's recent actions involve stripping access to key contributors like Joost de Valk and Karim Marucchi over concerns of a potential fork of WordPress.
The conflict stems from a desire among some contributors to democratize WordPress governance and reduce Mullenweg's control, which he perceives as a threat.

The ongoing dispute highlights deep-seated tensions surrounding WordPress, especially following Mullenweg's decision to bar WP Engine from essential tools amid a legal battle.
