its more than likely “it can’t hurt, so might as well” more than anything.

If they really didnt want it, they wouldn’t have posted this at all, or like other suggested properly censored it, they simply tried here, deemed “most people won’t bother” and moved on from it.

god i love the modern internet.

people do this stuff?

Guess we need to pick up the pace then.

while true, i am not an iphone user, and IOS is still rather funny.

gotta love when they implement half of the functionality, instead of just implementing all of the functionality, because it would take like, ten more seconds.

they both suck.

this is literally just what i said, but ok.

there is an inevitable cost to written code though, it simply cannot be computed away. In this case the cost is just a shitty application with an even shittier user experience.

three times over, no less.

as a big proponent of FOSS I see where you’re coming from - but the reality will always be that apps which have a significant learning curve to even install are obviously hugely off-putting to the majority of users.

i think part of the problem is that stuff like matrix is built for a very specific interface. Where as we could build something like matrix, in a different design meta, more akin to something like mumble, which not only greatly simplifies the construction of it, but also greatly simplifies administration of it. The protocol itself shouldn’t innately require an obtuse arbitrary system that makes it a nightmare.

Anything that is remotely related to “web apps” or web in general, seems to be an utter fucking nightmare these days. I think we need a healthy dose of dedicated native applications.

it won’t even use the OS emoji font.

im still amused by the fact that discord mobile uses two yes, you read that correctly, TWO emojis sets, it uses one in app, and the selector, and then uses another for the text input line, because.

“android is good” mfers when they have to manually set a calendar task to notify themselves to manually delete the bloated information for an app that they have installed.

no shade to you specifically, but it pisses me off how much android users circle jerk over it being better than IOS, even though it’s like, moderately less annoying.

yes but think about how much money writing 500MB worth of code would cost.

I realize it’s not all code, and some of it is already written, but please, muse me, and do the math for it.

and it also runs like shit too.

ignoring the fact that it’s absolutely horrid.

An install of ICUE on windows takes up multiple gigabytes. Why? Uhm, good question.

i mean yeah, but that’s only situationally funny.

genuine question, any reason not to just actually deprecate it then? Like just stop producing hardware that routes IPV4. Chances are there’s enough that’ll already do IPV4 it won’t be a problem, and im sure if you really needed to, you could figure something out.

u aren’t wrong.

i’m mostly just sad that the funny side of malicious software is gone.

There’s no more funny malware. It’s all ransomware and stealers.

oh so it’s a classic instance of shitty hardware vendors doing shitty software things.

Gotta love technology.

man i miss these days.

These days not only would it open your CD drive, it would open your tax documents, your crypto wallet, your account cookies, probably even your banking information.

The modern internet fucking sucks dude.
