Yesterday, @firefox 125 came out.
This means all major browsers now support all the fantastic features of popover, which means an entire class of JavaScript libraries (and I suspect about 10% of @github) is now fully obsolete.
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

So @photomatt - I saw the post by @automattic.
I'm ready to lead the next releases. I am sure plenty of people and companies are willing to help me and we've got plenty of ideas on what we should be doing.

But do you all understand that OpenAI, Microsoft, Google and others trained their AIs on all *your* website content and *your* public code? Why are you not as mad about that?

Comment on each other’s blogs (time to re-enable those comments people!) and use pingbacks and trackbacks.
Let’s not exchange Twitter for yet another platform we don’t own.
I've been working incredibly hard with @jonoalderson and other colleagues to get Schema to a whole new level. @Yoast SEO 11.0, out today, in my not so humble opinion, changes the game on what Schema implementations should look like:
