+## Updating a WordPress Website from FAIR
+
+The simplest form of participation in FAIR is to download and install the FAIR Plugin. Once installed and activated, you’ll have largely achieved technical independence from [WordPress.org](https://WordPress.org). The plugin does a few specific things to achieve this:
+
+- Intercepts API requests for package (plugins, themes) information to the API at [WordPress.org](https://WordPress.org) and redirects them to the AspireCloud API server. Packages installed this way will be drawn from the AspirePress mirror of the WordPress repository.
+- You will have your choice of Gravatar or locally-generated avatar images.
+- The news feed in your admin dashboard will come from FAIR’s “Planet” instance, which aggregates RSS feeds from independent sources.
+- The events feed in your admin dashboard will come from [The WP World](https://thewp.world/events/), which includes both WordPress and other related Open Source events.
+- Certain features are replaced with functions within the plugin rather than on a third-party site, including avatars (optional), the “Browse Happy” (browser check) service, generation of salts, and others.
+- Certain features such as PHP version checks and Twemoji are replaced with third-party APIs or services, such as [PHP.net](https://www.php.net). Ping-O-Matic notifications are replaced with [IndexNow.com](https://www.indexnow.com), which is not only an open standard, but is more effective than the Pingomatic service, which is outdated.
+
+In general, making fewer API calls with each page load will have a performance benefit, even if a small one in many cases.
