[META] Weekly Internals Summary Videos

> Hi contributors, > > For the last 6 weeks or so, in an effort to make the PHP internals more accessible and visible to a wider audience, I've been summarizing the week's discussions into a ~10-15 minute weekly video, then breaking that out into written content where it's supported, and threaded content for other micro-blogging platforms. > > *I have two things to discuss:* > > 1. I'm trying to ensure that contributors are properly tagged/attributed/[at]mentioned on all these platforms, but I just don't have a well built-out list of all of your social handles. I've collected some of these from the internals Discord and through web searches, but it's not enough. To collect these handles for platforms like LinkedIn, Reddit, Twitter, Bsky, Threads, Mastodon, etc, would it make more sense for you all to *reply in this thread with all of your handles*, or should I create a simple *Google Form* and link *that* instead? > > 2. To maintain accuracy, I want to include publishing the video link here to the internals list as part of my publishing workflow each week. I hope this provides an easy path for anyone who feels I've misunderstood or misrepresented their messages to correct me, allowing me to include a 'corrections and errata' segment in the videos. If we find that we're having to do multiple corections each week, then I'll probably post the first draft to the list and allow comments and corrections during an ~8hr window *before* filming. > > --- > > The data cutoff is weekly at 10pm Vancouver time (UTC-7) each Tuesday evening. First draft of the script is usually ready by 11:30 PM, and filming generally starts at 9:30am the subsequent Wednesday morning. Publishing is usually finished around ~5pm that same Wednesday. I'm working hard to speed this up, but it's an iterative process. > > I'm going to include the link to last week's video here so that we can address any necessary corrections, and I'll also a list of the platforms where I posted it. If anyone has ideas for other platforms where this visibility work might be appreciated, I'd love to know them. I've also been submitting to laravel-news, and the phpweekly newsletter. > > youtube https://youtu.be/cGNa33qGqEg > r/php https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/1uxnmsp/this_week_in_php_internals_july_15_2026/ > r/symfony https://www.reddit.com/r/symfony/comments/1uxnuq0/this_week_in_php_internals_july_15_2026/ > r/laravel https://www.reddit.com/r/laravel/comments/1uxntqb/this_week_in_php_internals_july_15_2026/ > dev.to https://dev.to/projektgopher/this-week-in-php-internals-july-15-2026-4nhb > mastodon https://phpc.social/@ProjektGopher/116926982520569384 > threads https://www.threads.com/@projektgopher/post/Da1bNf_lL-r > bsky https://bsky.app/profile/projektgopher.com/post/3mqq27xvmac2s > twitter https://x.com/ProjektGopher/status/2077559023998816461 > linkedin https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:share:7483325450434400256/ > > Thanks everyone for your help and support (especially on Discord), and I'm eager to keep this thing going. > > Cheers, > Len
