Howdy! 

Today is my 46th day #stayhome. How are you mastering the lockdown? For me, some days are better than others. Mostly I count my blessing and enjoy hanging out with my best friend and husband. 

On Monday, I started a 30-Day Challenge to write or update one article per day on the End-User documentation for the Block editor on WordPress.org: three new pages: YouTube, Facebook and Twitter embed blocks and two updated pages: Image and Gallery blocks so far. Last weekend, I already updated the page about the Paragraph block. What is the most wanted information about the Block editor you find missing?(WordPress 5.4 version only, though)

Remkus de Vries  found the website with 246 install plugins in production. Must be the world record! What's the highest you ever encountered?
