Since latest iOS update or maybe other app updates, my battery is just draining all day. I have a charger at my desk during the day and it can’t keep up. I end the day almost near 0% when I used to get down to maybe 20-30%
Something changed 🤔

I already assumed that the unprofessional delivery would be downplayed in coverage of this. Unfortunately the disrespect almost always gets swept under the rug for Matt as the conversation moves on to substance.
Now this documentary is a must see for me!
Matt going off on many people including committers and Mary the WP exec director in a public slack was pretty ick

This is a major challenge with the AI connectors in core, there is no trust and opt-in. Plugins will just start tapping into your AI access and it’s all or nothing.

Absolutely wild that HTTP polling sync is happening like this :|
RE: https://mastodon.social/@therepository/116243694556696241
Add the numbers up, HTTP polling is going to cost everyone more money, resources used, energy needed, storage needed (logs etc), etc — this feature is highly problematic on any host that doesn’t invest in a custom polling solution ASAP.
This was rushed and unfortunately not well thought out in terms of impact to the web on an IRL environmental and shared server level.
You can do anything at Zombo com but you were more welcome at the original than the new relaunch. Proof:

This is going to kill trans kids and it’s extremely scary. This is not hyperbole or me blowing this out of proportion.

There’s a new FAIR announcement available now here: https://fair.pm/blog/2026/02/26/second-star-to-the-right-and-straight-on-till-morning/
RE: https://fosstodon.org/@shawnhooper/116138603315445757
Its clear that the reason no host would be first to join the board is because of the culture of fear that Matt has perpetuated since WCUS 2024.
We know from legal proceedings that he’s put pressure on hosts and has an adversarial approach towards them.
But if Matt is upset about hosts not contributing enough back to the WP ecosystem, why did he push so hard in public and private to actively prevent hosts from providing the support that FAIR needs?
No not that way?
Excited to share that I made a new API for the Plugin Check (PCP) reviews of plugins. Right now it's launched only for use by the spreadsheet plugins here: https://comparewp.org/cck/
It runs once a week, checks the latest version of the plugin for errors+warnings (full suite) and stores that for the API to consume. The API exposes just the total error + warning numbers at the moment.
Examples:
https://comparewp.org/plugin-check-api/pods/
https://comparewp.org/plugin-check-api/advanced-custom-fields/
The sheet above has a row that now shows those counts.
