WPwatercooler - Weekly WordPress Talk Show

Does WordPress have a naming problem? Is everything just going to be called JetPack in a few years? What about WordPress.com? Full Site Editor? Site Builder, Page Builder, Cosmic (we’re pulling for you Paul), Page Builder, GutenPage?

We think WordPress has some naming issues we need to get addressed and the community is taking different sides to this issue. Here is ours.

There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation and naming things.

EP426 - Why does it burn when I WebP?

This week on WPwatercooler we’re going to be discussing the WebP file format and native support for it in WordPress. With support for WebP being added in 2021, it is now merged into core with the intention of being the default image format for WordPress moving forward. We’ll be discussing this with Jon Brown of 9seeds, a longtime friend of the show who is overdue for a return visit. He was last on “EP316 – Discussing a hard week in WordPress” back in April of 2019.
