Just released 22 (!) new major versions for my extensions as Release Candidate. All technical debt removed so we are good to run on #Joomla 6 and (minimum) Joomla 5.3. Sending out newsletter tomorrow.
What a trip....
Biggest conclusion in making these extensions Joomla 6 ready is that I have to many extensions #lol
Still one very big extension to go... will take me again a couple of days work, but hé... the Joomla show must go on :)

... and it's a wrap...
created 6 video's for two of my extensions #OthersAreComingButNotSoon

These are for ochFoundation5: people are always asking me why I'm so enthusiastic about that extension :)

The Injectors are really awesome (If I may say so :))

Going to push some extension updates in a minute, #Joomla is doing a new release (security) today and experience learns that most website maintainers take that opportunity to also update their extensions... Note sure if that is a good strategy, but it is what I see happening.

What do you think: good or not good updating your extensions while updating Joomla itself?

Prepping for tomorrows #joomla security release. No time to test as we don't know what changed in this release, so rolling up sleeves and be prepared when installing. What I heard this could be a big one (not in terms of changes, but in terms of exploits).
In the meantime working on some new ideas, and still sitting on the idea of doing short video's #procrastinating #nottokeenonthespotlight

What are you up to today, love to hear it!

Taking some time for the 'afterparty' af ter yesterdays release of the new major version of ochFoundation5 (yes, 50% coupon is still valid: onlinecommunityhub.nl/och-clic). And for those who say Mastodon has no 'reach', been tracking my 'campaign' on linkedin, facebook, bluesky and here on mastodon: mastodon turns out to be the one with the most visitors #JustSoYouKnow
Think today is a good time to fiddle with #DietPi never a dull moment

Back to the challenge of dealing with a slow API that provides stock rates. fetching all stocks needed sometimes takes over 20 minutes. The supplier isn't going to fix their response times so we need to refactor on our end. Maybe split op the fetching to do them in parallel instead of sequential, I don't think that in the end this will make a huge difference... #joomla #JoomlaDevelopment #LifeOfaDeveloper
How do you deal with external services acting up?
