Wait, if I’m not a software developer, then I must be a furry artist 🫣 The things I learn about myself on the internet… xd

If you’re interested in this topic, I simply must plug the Adam Something YT channel :) He makes funny but also serious videos about urban and transport planning, and whatever new “trains but worse” transport idea techbros came up with this month.

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. This change seems to be mostly about people using their phones for everything.
- Comment on Facebook is asking to use Meta AI on photos in your camera roll you haven’t yet shared 5 weeks ago:
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
- Comment on No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websites 1 month ago:
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 :D
And the iframes took up like 1/4 of the screen while the rest 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 I it was all so fucking unusable, but pretty xD

I’m not saying he is making obscene money
I am, that much money is obscene. Converted that’s like 125k GBP, you can buy a house for cash every 3 years in the UK from that much money O.o
- Comment on How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years? 1 month ago:
Obsidian backlinks from my daily notes :) Though I use it more often to track my books, as I mostly play endless live service games 😅
I can sort of use my Steam review date stamps too to track what I played, bc I review the vast majority of games I try.
- Comment on lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month 2 months ago:
Actually the observer and explorer links redirect to external sites (fediverse.observer and lemmyverse.net respectively)
It would be odd to single out just the biggest server instead of letting people decide themselves; I have a feeling this exclusion is to do with .world’s users having a beef with the folks running .ml 😅 (and vice verse - join-lemmy.org seems like the official Lemmy site, so ran by the .ml ppl)
- Comment on lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month 2 months ago:
complete tangent: I see lemmy.world is listed there, but anyone knows why .world doesn’t appear on join-lemmy.org’s list of servers?

Some users don’t have the time to block, simply conclude “this is a hostile environment” and leave.
This exactly.
As the anecdote puts it, once you start tolerating Nazis in your bar, it becomes a Nazi bar.
They poison the space, and the regular folks leave.

Thanks, actually I was already using it for backing up my Gmail inbox, so now I looked at its search features, and found the Expression (Power) Message/Calendar Search - NG addon that provides Gmail-like filtering :)

Sounds like it’s an opt in, what am I missing
Because it’s a clear step on the enshittification slide. It’s opt in for now.

Btw (sort of just thinking out loud) could paying for an email domain be a solution? I see many webhosts offering email + domain packages for like 1-3 GBP/month, and we could just download the emails into, say, Thunderbird, so if a company turns shit, we still have the domain and all the emails received/sent over the years.
- Comment on Gemini will now automatically summarize your long emails unless you opt out 2 months ago:
Do any other email services/clients have a very similar search function? Where I can search for date ranges and email sizes in addition to the more typical operators.
At my workplace I have to deal with Outlook, and it’s a pile of crap in comparison.

Ok this is the first step where I feel an actual urge to look for Gmail alternatives. I’m a desktop-only Gmail user, but I can see where this is going… :/ Also heavy user of Google Drive and Sheets, so it’s going to be annoying if I have to replace all of them :/
