I'm glad they're adding support, but I also feel like this is a hard one to sell to the general public. If it creates a better experience, word will get around about it, but going on stage and talking at length about how there's a new messaging protocol would have been a challenge for non-technical viewers

I just read they decided to default it to off. They should remove it entirely imo, but with this move, it costs IT departments $0 and 0 hours of their time to worry about.

I think business + government + education usage is more important for them than personal, and as long as this costs them nothing, I doubt it makes a dent in anyone's plans. Could have been an apocalypse if defaulted to on though.

They've raised over $80 million. Investor money is a poison, and the only antidote is enshittification.

This can certainly be done as long as we stick to the five core values - take ownership, take the leap, act with integrity, put the customer first, and dare to innovate.

I'd place Twitch in that spot before Tiktok as well. Bordering on unusable for years

Millenials were the original "avocado toast" generation targeted by boomers. We've been conditioned to protect our young from the real babies in these older generations. But there are good ones and bad ones in every generation.

yes and you can also leave out a plate of cookies where you want a strong signal so the wifi waves will go there when they're hungry

We're all gonna get old and some of us are going to get dementia. I have a hard time pointing at vulnerable people whose brains are nearly expired and saying "Haha jeez what noobs, how could they be such idiots?"
