an issue to add ActivityPub support is one thing I'd look at longingly:

3 points · Open discussionI don't think this is a realistic request on the modern web - particularly when it comes to JavaScript code, even if it's a technically accurate interpretation of how JS is transmitted and executed. (Licensing is an interesting thing to think about here.)
But hey, for what it's worth, every piece of JavaScript we run is free software compatible. Hooray! https://github.com/idno/known
In Applying the Free Software CriteriaFor sure. WordPress has a lot of legacy backwards compatibility on its shoulders. If they could shrug it off and start again, I'm sure it would be a lot cleaner.
The project I'm working on (https://github.com/idno/idno) is PHP, but explicitly doesn't support legacy versions, in order to rule out the way of working that was finally made obsolete in v5.3. I'm very happy with the language, and I can usually express what I need simply. Reflection could use a little love, mind you.
In PHP functions originally bucketed by strlen, were renamed to balance length
