The First Thing newsletter is introducing a new feature: an ongoing photo gallery contributed by its subscribers. This initiative, launched on June 6th and running through June 12th, 2026, invites readers to share their own images. The gallery aims to foster a greater sense of community among newsletter recipients. Details regarding submission guidelines and selection criteria have not been released, but the project signifies a move towards increased reader engagement. The newsletter intends to regularly update the gallery with new submissions. This represents a novel approach to content creation, leveraging the experiences and perspectives of its audience. The initiative is currently running for a one-week period.
