I've had a love, hate relationship with Jetpack. Actually, it has been more hate than love. Actually, it has been just pretty much hate. But today I set out to answer the question: Is my disdain for Jetpack unfounded?
Am I doing myself a disservice by not using Jetpack? Could I be potentially hurting my websites, visitors, or clients by ardently refusing to use something that is a legitimately good tool?
Today I'm going to set out to answer those questions.
