[tw2113] Matt and whoever he's working with forked the plugin and then took over the slug instead of giving it its own slug in .org repo

[asuh] The only thing that’s positive about this forked plugin for users is that ACF -> SCF will be seamless, updates will continue, and no workarounds needed. If Matt keeps blocking WPE indefinitely, ACF would never be updated for so many sites that don’t follow the drama.

#
[asuh] It’s dogmatic nonsense at this point and hostile to the brand.
