This Juneteenth weekend, we're reminded that freedom is a continuous journey toward equality.

🏳️‍🌈 Inclusion makes tech better for everyone.

This hashtag#PrideMonth, we celebrate the rainbow community in tech and beyond.

Diversity fuels innovation, and when we uplift LGBTQ+ voices, we build a stronger, more inclusive industry.

Maintainers are the backbone of open source.

Their work is often invisible, but essential.

Here's just a couple of things maintainers provide:

🧩 They bring order to chaos.
💬 Foster respectful collaboration.
🔐 Keep our tools secure.

Think you don't use open source? Think again. 💚

Here are five open source projects powering the tools you rely on:

🐧 Linux – powers most servers and Android phones
🌍 WordPress – builds 40%+ of the web
🦊 Firefox – open browser focused on privacy
June 3, 2025 at 3:23 PM
Behind every plugin, patch, and pull request are maintainers.

These are dedicated folks who keep open source thriving.

👩🏾‍💻 They fix bugs.
🧑🏻‍🔧 Review code.
🧠 Secure systems.

This May, we're saying THANK YOU to all the maintainers out there.

But what is open source, really? It means software that anyone can inspect, modify, and enhance.

It's not just code, it's collaboration, transparency + freedom.

This month, we'll highlight impactful open-source projects and the people who maintain them. Stay tuned. 💚

I’m about to do an official post on the blog for this, but did you know almost any WordPress developer can write for the dev blog? In particular there are four topics that could use your help, that dive into React, query_vars, testing and one other I’m forgetting.
