so apparently wp wants to remove the pm feature and doesn't realise just how much of an essential feature it is. considering wp markets itself as a platform for writers to build a community and connect with other writers, it is appalling to even think that they'd do smth like this. a friend shared this petition link with me, I urge you to sign it as well. it is not just gonna affect cover shops, writers, awards, etc. but also the privacy of writers. the pm communication is used for multiple reasons and just bc wp's terrible management at handling reports (even though they're still better than ig in that regard bc you're allowed to talk to actual people) is going to be a huge huge impact on so many writers and editors, myself included. please sign the petition to stop wp from removing another important feature (still mourning the loss of the newsfeed)
