I’ve been working with WordPress since 2006, and while I have—and will continue to—advocate for the software, it’s the people who matter most. This community is its heartbeat, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to stand with those passionate about shaping its future. 🙏

To be fair, none of this is meant to be a "product" or deployed in a way that would compete with any premium SEO plugins. I had a few hours of downtime and it was more a practice in "can this even be done with AI".

Oh snap—you, me, and @lauramonroe.bsky.social are Twitter circa 2007. That’s more than a collective 1/2 century on the platform.

I’m thrilled that there’s a social icon in #WordPress core right now. Already added it to my personal website.
