Introducing FAIR for #WordPress! I've detailed the journey from concern to action, explaining how this new decentralized distribution layer (definitely not a fork!) aims to enhance security, compliance, and the plugin economy. marucchi.com/introducing-... #FAIRPM

The week is finally here and I cannot wait for this event!

We > me. </story>

Big thanks to everyone for the kind words and support on my move into the role of Community Manager at WP Engine. It means a lot. Even folks in competing spaces have reached out, and that speaks volumes about the kind of community we have. Appreciate you all! 🫶

This makes me exceptionally happy. Congrats all involved! 👏 aboutus.godaddy.net/newsroom/new...

Updated my bio today. Official announcement coming tomorrow. 👀

We are deeply saddened by the devastation in and around LA. Our partners The Webby Awards curated an incredible list to help the communities affected in LA. 🧵⬇️

Proud of all the work we did for the WordPress community and our customers. ✌️

It's clear the #WordPress world needs a change. So I wrote a post about exactly that: Breaking the Status Quo: A vision for a new WordPress era

In just a few minutes, I used ChatGPT to create a WordPress plugin that adds a meta box for Custom Title/Meta Description fields per page/post. It also includes a toggle for controlling robots directives (index/follow or noindex/nofollow). What else for basic SEO is missing?

Proud to be included in this starter pack of #WordPress folks. 😀

Nothing but gratitude for the #WordPress community this week. 💛

Not all #WordPress block themes need 100+ patterns to shine. Sometimes, the most elegant designs speak through their defaults rather than their options.

Any typography fans out there? Love the update to Inter (version 4.1) by @rsms.me. A beautiful font gets more beautiful. Download Inter: rsms.me/inter/

So @further.net tells me that a strong effort on a personal domain is better than a weaker effort on a branded domain. Do you agree with him?

Here’s to the Discover feed—may it deliver new friends, fresh ideas, and a much-needed vacation from the Echo Chamber Resort. 😁
