Matt Mullenweg says the wheels have fallen off a bunch of things at WordPress. I agree but it's started with him and his tantrum against WP Engine and the Trademark disputes around the foundation.

It's so limiting because of how locked down iOS is. I can do a lot with an NFC tag but can't make a VCard work. That's the one thing I really want to work! HAHA. Any ideas? Any news on Apple making this work eventually?

Have you all heard of the weekly podcast from Scott Johnson and @[email protected] called Play Retro?

I've loved Elementor for so long. It's the page builder that I default to most of the time when I'm building sites for my clients at my agency. But lately it's gotten so bloated and hard to use.

Has anyone else noticed this?

I've build a few with the native block editor and I'm liking where that's finally heading.

Thought this was an interesting piece from WP Beginner. Granted it might be a bit bias being that the site is a WP site. But, I've seen these #'s elsewhere as well.

Brand new Lenovo on Windows 11. 32 GB of ram and 1tb SSD. Works great, mostly, until it has trouble waking up from sleep.

LOL Anyone else have a tired Win 11 computer?

Looks like the last update was 12 months ago. Are you still updating it?

The best thing I can think of that is happening to Bluesky right now is that people and communities are spinning up 3rd party PDS servers and letting people join them. This is allowing, finally, the decentralization, of the AT Protocol.

That along with the folks at ANew.Social with their bounce and bridgy tools is making the inter-connectivity of the open web so much better.

Have any of you tried moving your Bluesky account to a new PDS?

I'm so excited for the second Fediforum of 2025 in October. The first one earlier this summer was excellent.

Say what you will about what happened earlier in the year with on of the organizers. Johannes has done a good job finding new board members to ensure the Fediforum continues.

I love to hear what gear people use for their podcasting. Post it below!

What tools are you using to record podcasts remotely?

I currently use Squadcast.fm, but I'm Riverside.fm curious. 🤣

I created this community because I'm neck deep in the podcasting space and wanted to find other like-minded individuals who want to share tips and tricks on how to get better at podcasting.

Let's keep this promotion free unless we, as a community, decide to have a thread about our shows.

Reach out if you have questions.

Any chance of supporting Mbin/Kbin and Piefed?

Matt Mullenweg went on The Verge's Decoder podcast at the end of June. Pretty enlightening. Also Tumblr isn't coming to the fediverse anytime soon. Bah!

I find this really weird. My doc says it's normal for those who have ADHD... my caffeine intake is quite a lot. I can down 3 monster zero sugar energy drinks and just be awake and not buzzing.

This is with my Concerta in me too.

Is this weird or just the ADHD experience?

Olive is a 3 1/2 yr old Airedoodle.

She's 50% Airedale Terrier, 36% approx standard poodle, and 16% approx Labrador Retriever.

Out of all these smart breeds, she missed out on all the smarts. She's not that bright, but a very loving amazing, large dog.

Honestly I can't say I would. I like my rM2 but there are so many more options out there now.

Matt Mullenweg has a huge chip on his shoulder that HE PUT THERE. He's taking it out on his top contributors.

Joost has nothing but the best interest at heart for the WordPress community. I would exactly say Mullenweg Silenced Joost, it's not like he killed him or anything, but he's not letting him speak at WC Asia.

I think Matt has gone off the deep end here and its' concerning beyond belief.

We really need to wrangle control of the project out of his hands.
