WPFolks · Day 2 Just crossed 100 folks, 175 plugins showcased, 11 WordPress businesses listed. Community feed hasn't gone quiet since launch 🙌 Also shipped: Verified + Expert badge applications and a bunch of polish. wpfolks.org #WordPress #buildinpublic

@BlakeWhittle7 WPFolks connects people. Real wp.org data on every profile, a community feed, jobs, Q&A, speakers, talks, snippets, and a community fund that sends developers to WordCamps and sponsors local meetups. Much more than a directory.

@thewpfolks How is this different from The WP World?

WPFolks is 24 hours old 🎉 — 41 WordPress folks joined — 58 plugins showcased — 6 snippets shared — 4 businesses listed — 10+ community posts — DMs full of kind words and feature requests Day 1 was awesome. Thank you 🙏 wpfolks.org #buildinpublic #WordPress

@wpcontent_co Seeing WPFolks covered by @wpcontent_co on launch day is something I did not expect this soon. Thank you. This is exactly the kind of support that keeps independent community projects alive.
