💬 Summary:
In this episode of Kinsta Talks, Aaron Jorbin shares how anyone who uses WordPress can start contributing — by testing the bugs targeted for the upcoming 6.8.2 release. Learn how to use the beta testing plugin, how to write helpful bug reports, and why your voice matters even if you’re not a developer. We wrap up with a short bonus on submitting to WordCamp US.
💡 Key Quotes:
- “Now is not the time to fix your personal wishlist bug. Now is the time to fix the problems introduced in 6.8.”
- “It’s impossible to test every plugin combination. That’s why we need the community.”
- “There’s no wrong way to report a bug. There’s just incomplete or unkind ways.”
- “A video can be worth thousands of words. If you can’t describe it, record it.”
