WordPress Lifts Community Blocks: A Fresh Start
WordPress is creating a more open and collaborative environment by removing all previous community blocks. This initiative, referred to as a "jubilee," signals a fresh start for the platform.
The official WordPress announcement emphasized that while community and directory guidelines still apply, all prior blocks are being treated as "bugs" and are being systematically removed.
We're clearing out all previous human blocks to create a more open and collaborative environment. While community and directory guidelines remain, consider any old blocks to be bugs that are on their way out.
This action reflects a move towards greater inclusivity within the WordPress community. Users previously blocked will now have access, but everyone is expected to adhere to existing guidelines.
What This Means for the WordPress Community
This change signifies WordPress's commitment to fostering a more welcoming and collaborative space. While past infractions are being pardoned, continued adherence to community guidelines is crucial.
- All previous blocks are being lifted.
- Community and directory guidelines remain in effect.
- Future violations will still result in consequences.
The official announcement can be found on X (formerly Twitter).
