We had Mastodon, which worked perfectly

tbh several of my colleagues complained that they found discovering new content and/or content outside of their servers really hard, and the whole federation is just too complicated for not-technologically-minded people 🤷

(no personal experience because I don’t use any microblogging platforms)

I see it as a curved sword handle on top of… idk a set top box 🤣

This really reminds me of Peter F Hamilton’s novels about the Void 🙃 (Void Trilogy and Chronicle of the Fallers)

as the kids say, this sent me 💀

thank you, great antipasta <3

23 per day atm :D

Edit: and DONE!

Yea, the organisation was also founded in the 90s, so Microsoft was the default for everything.

5000 employees, 10b valuation. We use Google docs. We’re not “China Telecom” big, but I doubt anyone would call us small. I think most young companies are happy on google docs.

And on the flip-side my dozen-employee workplace runs on Microsoft Outlook/OneDrive/Teams 🙃

According to StatCounter tablets never breached 7% market share, and even that was in 2014. Nowadays they are below 2%. Windows’s lost userbase seems to be mostly about people using their phones for everything.

FB itself for a community group, and Messenger for my family group chat 🤷

The group now has a presence on Discord, but there are still 26 times as many members on FB. In Hungary many people still use FB as their main social network. At most they also use Instagram, but that obviously doesn’t work for closed discussion groups.

I’m an EU citizen living in the UK, but only signed the UK one because I’m not putting my passport ID into petitions O.o

Thanks! :)

Thanks!

I hated frames, but I do have a tiny bit of nostalgia for them because I started web design in the early '00s when they were all the craze for handmade blogs and portfolio sites :D

And the iframes took up like 1/4 of the screen (with miniscule faint text!) while the rest of the page were large brush swoops and other graphical elements 🥹

And the tiny navigation buttons without any text that you had to figure out from the hovered URL.

Ah it was all so fucking unusable, but pretty xD

What is the original dialogue?

thanks I hate it xD

For me it immediately starts downloading the file instead of opening in the browser as PDF. Maybe it’s already in your download folder?
