I love jetpack and I agree with everything Matt said.

1- Jetpack has amazing features, which are very difficult to set up in the traditional way, like photon, etc.

In fact, I would use jetpack on all my sites even if I´d only need photon.

Publicize is has the the simplest interface I´ve seen for publishing to social networks.

2- I think it´s fine that Automattic gets some revenue from Jetpack and I¨m glad they doing it. I don´t understand why some people say Auttomatic is competing against them launching services / tools that could be developed by the community.

For God´s sake, they´re the developers of the platform, it´s their right to develop tools for their platform for generating some revenue.

3- In order to wp continue gaining more users and competing against other platforms, it needs serious improvements, better admin interface, a front-end page builder like visual composer, and a lot of highly difficult things.

The only way wp can get those improvements is through Auttomatic, a serious company that has the money and resources.

Then why would I be against that? Sure, visual composer sales would drop but Auttomatic would be improving the platform, not doing it to hurt visual composer developers.

The same goes to theme developers, which have complained a lot after the algorithm implementation on the theme directory, they´re improving the directory. Sure, it affected revenue but this is a process where we all are learning and I think the theme directory will continue changing until they found the right balance.

So instead of being critizing, let´s propose some ideas to find the right balance between the right theme suggestions and giving some recognition to theme developers.

Finally I just wish the best to Auttomatic (and Matt) and I´m really thankful for what they´ve done until now.
