*most* of you guys

The only reason I havent deleted Facebook yet was because of family, but I'm moving em off it and just trying to communicate through email n calling them more n such. Twitter is useless fr. So useless. Instagram should have kept independent n not bought off byFacebook, I'm gonna save all my photos n move off there soon enough

Oh really?

It'd be a shame

If it got deleted

You realise Google Facebook and Twatter don't have the monopoly on user interface

what does "heavy UX" even mean?

Before you could move em off of it

Lol

we had working window managers in the 80s.

web browser in the mid 90s

That'll be a *long* discussion

But just remember how computer illiterate people were back then

And they havent gotten that much better

The Internet was a -much- better place before normies ruined it

Like

Imagine getting everyone here to setup IRC

90% of these guys would get lost

thats easy, x-window based IRC existed decades ago

Again

Most people

I haven't had a laptop since 2015 or something

MIRC for windows is pretty ancient

Cant use it

Wish I had a laptop or smth

Or pc

You are referring to a time when so few people were on the internet

Because you used to require a decent number of brain cells to use apps

I'm baffled by this insistence that if facebook and twitter went away, suddenly nobody would be able to use a computer

most UI/UX bloat is crap layered on crap so that theres a new product to sell or to support lavish websites that are barely usable

I didnt say that

Dont strawman

Then what is your point

@system11 barely usable to us, sure

Not for normies

Coolitic was kissed by alien technology n abducted that's why he's preaching like this

no, ive seen normal people struggle with (for example) windows 10

@Eccles SV is way more than just Twitter or FB

or the labyrinthine mess which is chrome now

What we're demanding is a level playing field with objective and fairly/equally applied rules, protections against monopolies, protection against political intereference and bias, and appropriate taxation

I'd enjoy FF if Mozilla wasnt gay
