What’s a P2 and why does it make so much sense

I remember when Automattic first introduced the P2 WordPress theme. The theme itself introduced a lot of interesting new things and a new approach to WordPress sites: collaboration websites and short Twitter-like posts. I even tried to use the theme for a side project somewhere around 2010 while I was still in high school, but...
A special word from me for you:

Am I the only one that when sees an available update to anything I HAVE TO do it before anything?

For example I enter to wrtite a post here on the blog and I see this:

Cannot write anything before I update.

Or I open VsCode and it has an available update (I use the Insiders edition with multiple updates per day). I HAVE to update it. Same with PhpStorm plugins.

So… am I the only one?

I ordered a WordPress t-shirt on March 7th. Arrived in Romania on April 1st, even though I paid for express delivery. Post is slow worldwide, but especially in Romania. It stayed in customs from the 1st of April until today, the 6th of April. Now it is on its route to my town, curious to see how much longer do I need to wait and how much do I have to pay for VAT and slow customs.

I’ve found the best Apple Watch band so far. It is not cheap but not too expensive also. It is a braided loop model, very comfortable.

I bought it from here.

Good old internet

It all started with this tweet: It is exactly a sentiment I had for a while now about the current state of the internet. Everything we do 90% of the time on the internet now is controlled by a few companies. Am I the only one that sees this as a potential threat? I remember...

Has anyone managed to use the WordPress mobile app to write posts on a blog with WPML? My Romanian blog and English blog are the same basically and I use WPML to show different content based on the domains.

I tried adding the English website to the mobile app but Jetpack sees the site as a duplicate of the Romanian one and ignores it.

On this occasion I cloned the WordPress iOS app locally to explore how that’s built, looks nice!

I am going to try new things with my blog and the first amongst those things is the ability to share quick posts that are meant to be like a status update on social platforms.

I like owning my content so less posting on social media, and more posting on my own platform. Like the good old days.

Let’s go!

PS: How do those status updates look like are WIP.

How to clean your iPhone speaker

It has been a while since my old iPhone 11 had bad sound coming out from the speaker and the volume was way too low. Probably in all these years, I had all kinds of dirt and debris entered in the speaker place. The same thing with the microphone, it had muffled sound and I...

Guess it's obvious, but the theme is created by myself with Tailwind CSS. You can find the source code here.
I still use WordPress 🧡. The theme is custom Laravel though 😎.
