Comment:

 Replying to [comment:3 SergeyBiryukov]:
 > At a glance, we might need to only return SHA-256 URLs for WordPress
 6.8-alpha or later (as per [WP59532]), and still return MD5 URLs for older
 WP versions.


 Turns out we don't need this at all, we can just return a sha256 I believe
 and core will treat it as an md5, which will pass straight through to
 Gravatar.

 [attachment:"7860.2.diff"] so it's much simpler, similar to the original
 patch here, but a little cleaner.
