Capitalism has convinced you RSS is antiquated. The real reason it's fading is because it doesn't have ads and tracking. You going to tell me the news article is truly better on a browser with ads than on a little program you can open any time, on or offline?
Considering a move to somewhere else in the fediverse and the lack of server rules on smaller instances are quite off-putting while the huge instances' local feeds are overwhelming and I'll probably stay put for another while.

#WordPress question:

Is it possible to disable some of the font weight choices via theme.json?

I don't want the end user to be able to choose one of NINE font weights when the design guide uses 2 weights.

Might end up just disabling font weights:

"typography": {
"fontWeight": false
}

Quick update before the weekend:

You can now sort stories by their rating, and view their rating on the story page.

Without looking, can you guess the highest rated Doctor Who TV story so far? I was pleasantly surprised.

You can also now sign up to the beta, and have your votes count! 🎉

(Ratings come from both my site and other reviews online).

Why does WordPress blocks use margin-block-start for vertical spacing instead of using margin-block-end?

Why, WHY?

Who wants a gap between a heading and the following paragraph?

I prefer to use theme.json as much as possible ...

#WordPress #wpThemes #themeJson

Workaround to set a favicon separate from the site logo in #WordPress block themes:

Add square site logo via the site editor. Make sure "Use as site icon" is toggled on. Save. Save.
Replace site logo to be shown in the header. Make sure "Use as site icon" is OFF. Save.
Now make sure "Icon" is NOT checked before saving the Header template part.
Make sure it is checked off every time you update the Header template part.

^ This is ridiculous, right?

So just click the "Site icon settings" 😂

My friend @chris wrote a fantastic post today. The Fediverse would make a great home for the WordPress community.

I hope to see more of the WordPress community embrace the Fediverse.

WordPress Should Embrace the Fediverse - Chris Wiegman

The WordPress community should be a champion of Mastodon and the wider Fediverser. Here's why the two are perfect for each other.

Was asked today if I would help update a #WordPress site (WP, theme and plugins) and help edit the content.

This site is only 2-3 years old but I declined.
Why?
´
Because this one-page site is built with a theme, a child theme, a page builder plugin, two different slider plugins, a SEO plugin. The performance? Slow.

Editing the content would be soooooo tedious!

But I said I'd love to build a new version using a modern block theme. I really would love to!

"17. The top 20 most popular plugins (as of October 2022) are listed below. Please select 3 plugins you think are essential when building WordPress sites. *"

Me: "None of these"
