Are there any folks in the PHP community with design skills willing to donate their time?
I need a 2736x650 cover for phpc.tv. No strong concept preferences, but perhaps something that incorporates thumbnails that have real people on it. No AI please.
I'll permanently affix your name on the design.

The pipeline turns red, then green, then red yet
Discovering new depths of technical debt
Each retry's a gamble, a Russian roulette
While prod runs old code, our users upset

I don't know about you, but when it comes to PHP content, Bluesky appears completely dead. I don't understand why anyone even bothers to post there. The algorithm is about as bad as on Twitter. Am I the only one who experienced this with all my account there?

This might be my last public workshop in a while, so if you ever wanted to learn about wrangling some the worst PHP legacy you've ever seen, now is the time.

It's so frustrating dealing with LLM customer support. You take the time to craft and repeat the question, and it keeps ignoring it, saying the same banalities over and over, occasionally answering a question that you *didn't* ask. CloudFlare should be ashamed of themselves, giving human names to bots and making us waste time with dozens of worthless interactions. I feel like playing chess with a pigeon.

I thought I could finally enjoy a weekend, but the way phpc.tv uses @cloudflare@cloudflare.social is apparently against their ToS. So now I have to find out how to keep things running while remaining compliant, on a budget, on top of their having refused to raise the upload limit, which I also need to fix somehow. I guess this is why communities keep getting stuck with YouTube, Facebook and the likes. Unless you run everything out of your basement, there will always be someone threatening to pull the plug.

This brings us to over 2,200 PHP-related videos!
It would help if y'all could ping conferences, user groups and other video creators, so I could focus on keeping things stable.
It's a simple process for them:
1. Request an account.
2. Copy YouTube's playlist or channel URL.
3. Paste to begin synchronizing: https://phpc.tv/my-library/video-channel-syncs
