Not my place, but we should name and shame agencies still using underscores as a base for themes.

Better Bookmarks Better Bookmarks is a WordPress block for adding rich link preview cards to your content.

Who could have guessed that CSS as a service wouldn't work out?

I gotta get off of Spotify.

A media category taxonomy would go a long way.

I build my tools for both users and developers, so Notiblock is completely style-agnostic. Use your own blocks and styles, then display them conditionally with Notiblock.

The frontend displaying Notiblock.

My clients were getting lost in the Site Editor while trying to update temporary notification messages, so I built Notiblock. A plugin that lets you conditionally display blocks and update messages directly from the WordPress Dashboard.

I added WooCommerce to my hobby site to sell my book. I’ve made about $400, only trying to break even on printing costs. Now Jetpack Stats wants $100 of that per year to keep using it. *Deactivated.*
