MSN could do the same with Yahoo Messenger users, for a while at least.

I think education needs to be approached from the idea of making learning more fun. No matter the subject.
I agree.
On the topic, I suggest reading “Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die” by Chip and Dan Heath to anybody that wants to understand how to convey information (to students, clients, etc.) in a way that can be remembered.

Most of the things that are taught in school are a “remember this forever even if it’s completely useless”
- Comment on Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon 2 months ago:
Yes, I remember the guy writing there. That was a serious website! But maybe he sold it to somebody else before Google completely killed their search engine.
Now, if you want to rank well on Google, you either have to churn out stupid articles filled with SEO junk every single day.
- Comment on Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon 2 months ago:
I don’t think feature parity is the only problem here. Power users need information density and quick reactivity, two things that the new settings – with their huge buttons and useless animations – dearly lack.
- Comment on Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon 2 months ago:
I wonder if there would be a way to “embed” those old panel applets into the new settings somehow.
- Comment on Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon 2 months ago:
And if you can do it, it’s complicated and convoluted. I miss Win32 settings panels, everything was so well organized and simple to manage.

I used to love HowToGeek, but I sadly see that now that’s also enshittified (not the article you linked, but the most recent ones).
- Comment on If "Master/Slave" terminology in computing sounds bad now, why not change it to "Dom/Sub"? 2 months ago:
It makes sense because “master copy” is the name of the “official” version of something. Nothing to do with slavery by the way.
- Comment on If "Master/Slave" terminology in computing sounds bad now, why not change it to "Dom/Sub"? 2 months ago:
And I’m proud of it :)
- Comment on If "Master/Slave" terminology in computing sounds bad now, why not change it to "Dom/Sub"? 2 months ago:
That’s why they used master. And this makes the whole “master is a bad word” stupid, at least in Git context.
- Comment on If "Master/Slave" terminology in computing sounds bad now, why not change it to "Dom/Sub"? 2 months ago:
I insist on renaming main to master every time I create a repo on GitLab. Master forever, even if it doesn’t make much sense.

Yeah, I’ll be honest, never have I took a look at somebody’s likes on Twitter or Mastodon.
- Comment on Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say 2 months ago:
They can’t be completely private because instances have to share how many upvotes each post has. That’s a limitation of the fediverse, since everything is spread across many independent systems, data has to be exchanged across them.
As of now, they’re semi-private because end users can’t easily see who voted on a post/comment unless they manage an instance themselves.
- Comment on Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say 2 months ago:
Yes, I may be wrong, but spinning up your own instance would also let you see new votes from now on, not votes on old posts. Which makes it even harder for trolls and morons.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, it depends on how you see it), some providers are already on IPv6. My Italian ISP has IPv6 with CGNAT, so all its users are on IPv6 without even knowing what it is.

I agree on the choice paralysis. I ended up with Feddit.it because my native language is Italian and that’s the biggest instance in my language.
