In doubt I suggest to download the package from https://wordpress.org/download/ and the sources from https://wordpress.org/download/source/ using #git

Just switched my WordPress site to ClassicPress using their migrate plugin in ~2mins. Front and back end are running way faster! 😀

Oh so the new flavors of WordPress will use different plugin repositories. Got it.

You know it’s bad when I’m turning to my personal Facebook feed because it’s literally the only place that isn’t drowning in WordPress.

Funny how I escaped from that drivel to WordPress, and now it feels like a sort of online sanctuary right now. Life is funny.

I’ve enjoyed the hyper specific WordPress memes. Silver lining I suppose.

I’m currently in the “feed cleanse via cute pet photos” phase of the current drama. So I should be back to normal by Monday.

Hey. You. It’s going to be okay.

In the worst case scenario, WordPress won’t just evaporate overnight, and probably won’t at all. You will have time to pivot if you need to.

We’re a smart, scrappy, and highly resourceful bunch.

Close socials. This isn’t good for any of us.

A possible alternative solution for those sites hosted at WP Engine. It might be possible to replicate the updater on the client side.

If you’re running an agency, this is a great time to show your value if you have maintenance clients on WordPress.

Communicate early. Communicate often. Your clients will take immense value in knowing someone is watching their back right now.

Can someone recommend a good intermediate #Laravel course? Asking for a friend 😅. #WordPress

It’s insane to me that .org powers are unilaterally being used for .com problems. This is a line I never thought I’d see get crossed so brazenly.

Maybe I should do that PHPNomad Laravel integration sooner than I thought. This is getting bad.
