marketing is 10x harder than vibe coding maybe 100x You can vibe an app in a weekend… but getting 1 paying user? That's black magic.

@vinnysgreen please don't vibe code a trip planner

Considering a cross country trip with my dog back and I'm immediately frustrated with every trip planner

@igorbenic you missed the #

Finally took the time to start investigating "leaking" on the upper floor. Current verdict: condensation. Will probably need to install some better insulation between roof and ceiling. Fixing in public 😅

@vapvarun I also feel the same!

Working 16 hours a day, 7 days a week. Still feel behind. Not on deadlines. Behind in the broader race. AI moves every few days, no week where nothing shifts. Two races I keep confusing: → Someone else's race: frontier models, research, capability curves. Not mine. → My race: use AI well enough to build better products for real users. That one I can run. The anxiety doesn't go away. But it gets less disorienting. Full honest take: vapvarun.com/working-16-hou…

@pootlepress I was planning to. I had around 10 themes designed in different niches following brutalism style. But the developers could not finish a theme and make it "commercial quality "- like it would work with all of the common plugins.

@codeshah Interesting- what were you selling ? Themes ?

I’ve been a bit worried that block themes are still too complex for the average WordPress user. Ollie is great, but it’s sitting at ~4,000 active installs, and the download pace feels modest (around ~200/day) compared with Kadence (around ~4,000/day). Is this a signal that “full site editing” still isn’t clicking for most people, or am I reading too much into theme stats? What’s your experience building with block themes, for you or for clients?

@ask_hellosatya Congratulations man!

This month marks 6 years since I started using WordPress. I had no idea it would change my life. Just a curious guy from a small town experimenting with websites. Today I work in partnerships & community for WordPress products. Here’s the journey 🧵 (1/8)

@benswrite I am still a big fan of Rank Math. I know it's bloated but still has value.

Does anyone actually use Yoast, SureRank, Rankmath? I mean people who don't shill, like I'm pretty sure, they are all the same product with different UI's.

File Manager plugin in WordPress feels clunky and old. So I'm creating a new File Manager plugin that feels modern and fresh..

InstaWP CLI - create WordPress sites - sync files / db - use with AI agents - run any WP CLI commands remotely. Ready for next era of WP development? (DM for early access)

WordPress is finished 💥 I just vibe coded my own content management system. It even handles eCommerce. Freshly live. Sign up here: http://localhost:3000

@RafalTomal @iamkawshar can Droip help us like this? 🤔

I'm not saying this is what the WordPress editor should look like for everyone, but building my own power user version of it is fun :)

What happens when an uptime monitoring service goes down? 🤔

@natmiletic Venmo me $50 and I will tell you 😛

Does anyone know what kubernetes or docker do?

@pootlepress okay

Pretty sure I’ve cracked a really solid Loveable → WordPress workflow. Tutorial coming this week 👀 If you’d like to see it, drop a comment below and I’ll send you the link when it’s ready.

@vikasprogrammer where do i sign up?

Working on a new thing! need beta testers (will reward accordingly).

WordPress block editor vs page builders: the fight is over and nobody won. Blocks are fine for blogs and simple layouts. They fall apart the moment a client wants anything custom. Page builders are still faster for real client work. The people who swear by blocks either build very simple sites or have forgotten what actual client requests feel like.

I've never been that excited about a panel. See you next Thursday at 4PM CET to talk about WordPress security.
