So I figured out what's up w/ the new colors.. they're from the current "Modern" color scheme, which has been around forever. For WP 7.0 they are swapping the "Default" fresh blue palette w/ the harsher "Modern" palette. Good news is you can change it back via your user profile.

Finishing up a new Pro #WordPress #plugin for managing the WP REST API 🛠️ Plan to launch within the next couple of weeks, Lord willing!

Temp-email web page before ads loaded, nice clean simple design

Temp-email web page after ads have loaded, complete mess and UI/UX nightmare

Perfect example of how too many ads completely ruin a web page (before and after).

The Kia EV9 rebrand is still the best example of a legacy company actually understanding structural peace. Most ‘modern’ updates just feel like a font change, but they actually fixed the architecture of the logo. Surgical.

👉 Two great (and free) sites for grabbing #emojis, icons, symbols, and special characters on the fly:

No ads, no popups, just awesome and free:
symbl.revend.group

Also great but has a giant popup cookie banner that breaks flow:

The Age Verification Trap Platforms are caught in a dilemma: enforce age restrictions or protect user privacy. How are they navigating this tricky terrain?

Age-verification would be a disaster. spectrum.ieee.org/age-verifica...

I really, really, really hope so.

Exactly. The new color is abrasive imo.

Current blue color, sort of muted and unobtrusive

New 7.0 blue color, sort of more in your face harsh tone ish
