Y'all...I just can't.
I don’t need slick. Good job on this.
I like it. I made a similar app for myself but your social network angle where I can comment on my thoughts , tag , etc is appealing.
Trump / White House issues presidential memorandum listing all international organizations, conventions, and treaties the US will withdraw from "that are contrary to the interests of the United States".

I really despise that checkmark
Ben Hur. Somehow seems on point. Gotta practice my chariot racing skills and be prepared to overcome captivity. Sure, sure. Can totally believe that will occur in my timeline.
Oh I can imagine. I manage a fair few sites and this kind of update is mildly terrifying.
176 items in today's Woo plugin changelog... 176. Imagine if one of these changes broke a site and your job was to figure out which one. I hate these kinds of changelogs. They make me really nervous.
Pong
Thanks Joe
WordPress agencies and others who create sites for clients... I'm curious how everyone handles setting up payment connections for the client. Like, connecting to Stripe or Paypal via Woocommerce or other cart system. Do you walk the client through the connection process or somehow do it for them?

“Not today,” said I, with a hammer and a plan.

Why are all the companies (yeah, I'm exaggerating but it FEELS like everybody) sending out "we've changed our terms of service" emails the past few days/weeks? Especially AI companies. Leave me alone!
I'm heartbroken. Alan, that conversation we began just a couple of months ago, we'll never get to finish. I really wish you were still here. On the other hand, I am happy that you are so at peace now. <3
Well when they go completely authoritarian and the American people try to flee, then the black on our side of the wall might come into play.
Seriously WooCommerce?? Today's 10.1.0 changelog has 200 changes in it? (half of those were fixes...it was that broken?) Oh, I'm not worried that SOMETHING in all that chaos will break, said no one ever.
I usually say “You’ve lost your mind again, buddy. Here’s a recap of our progress to this point. Stay on track or I’m walking away!” (Definitely would scare it into submission cuz I know it would miss me). 😃

Your mouse didn’t move ... it shimmered! Custom cursor trails were chaotic, laggy, and absolutely iconic.

Ha, yeah, I've been an SEO and web designer for longer than the moon has existed, so it's a blind habit I guess. :)
I didn't want anyone to feel tied to it. I wanted them to be able to self-host their rings if they wanted to. If I did that wrong, happy to discuss.
It's very possible I got something wrong. The object was that if my site went down and went away, I wanted to make sure people could still host their webrings themselves. There are advantages to choosing the free hosted version because they get in the directory, have management tools, etc. but...
This is insanely cool!
