I won’t lie, these past months, merging two companies haven’t always been easy. But I’m still so incredibly proud to work for a company that is putting in the work, showing up for the community, and improving the web at large. fueled.com/blog/wordpre...

And for me personally this release also is a cool milestone. It marks the fifth consecutive release where I was named as a noteworthy contributor. A milestone I got to celebrate with these wonderful gifts of recognition showing up at my door :) peterwilson.cc/wordpress-co...

Today is my five year anniversary working at @10up.bsky.social 🎉🤯 I cannot believe it's already been five years. Still feels like I've only really just begun, and am still loving every second of it. Here's to many more years with great colleagues working on interesting problems :) 🚀
Thank you! We just released version 20.0 of the Gutenberg plugin which marks the 200th release and about eight years of work. Thank you to every single person that has helped along the way ❤️ make.wordpress.org/core/2025/01...
@jamiemarsland.bsky.social @briancoords.com You know I really enjoy the speed build challenges. But this kind of challenge is what I would love to see more of. Actually getting some time to strategize. And build something that comes closer to real world work
🔥 NEW WEB DEV CHALLENGE 🚀 there’s chaos is Santa’s workshop, and I challenged @aaronfrancis.com, @kentcdodds.com, @devdevcharlie.com, and @domitri.us to fix it in time to save Christmas @sanity.io sponsored this episode on location in San Francisco — don’t miss it! youtube.com/watch?v=_H5p...
@sethrubenstein.info Do you have a recent demo video the PRC Chart builder block? I remember some demo you did somewhere but I cannot seem to find it
Never mind, found it in the showcase day recording :) www.youtube.com/live/EL9x9aw...
Created an issue on the Create Block Theme plugin repo to run the template code through a code formatter. Would love to get additional thoughts :) github.com/WordPress/cr...
Had a great time chatting with @briancoords.com about all things block editor :)
New video posted: @fabian-kaegy.com and I chat about Gutenberg, his experience using it on high-stakes sites, where we think WordPress core is going, and what to do about the navigation menu block. youtu.be/GfC8JMW3i0E
Do I happen to know anyone who may be able to help get this fixed in Gravity Forms? 😬
I cannot fathom how sooooo many large plugins in the WordPress ecosystem still have all of their blocks set to apiVersion: 1... It's been 4 years since Version 2 has been released... And a year and a half since Version 3...

This thread here actually reminded me of something else that has been staring in my mind for a while. And that is how Extensibility in WordPress Core used to drive a lot of contribution opportunities where it becomes harder and harder to use those same approaches. fabian-kaegy.com/wordpress-ex...
There are so many big features that have been in core for years such as global styles for example that simply are inaccessible to us outside of core 🤔 I'm not claiming to have an answer here. Just saying both approaches have their ups and downs...
