I see how it’s possible to jump to that conclusion, but I did not. And I don’t see why it’d be such a burden for OP to write a title like “Any tips for using Facebook marketplace?” + privacy community makes for a wonderfully efficient conveyance of information. To the what, hundred…. Thousands of people scrolling past this post. I could look at that and go, I’ve got nothing for you, and kept scrolling.
Instead it’s TITLE -> what about it? -> PREVIEW TEXT-> no to what? Just using it in general? -> c/PRIVACY -> idk wtf they’re on about
I could live and let live, and I often do… idk, my ADHD meds had worn off
Idk, maybe it’s cuz I’m on the same windows install I’ve been on for a few years, but there are things I dislike, but I’ve changed them, long ago. And occasionally I have to disable another taskbar thing, or well… that’s basically it.
The privacy element is legit, and I do what I can to reduce the amount of tracking they can do. But I game, I play games that don’t run on Linux. Well, the anti cheat doesn’t run on Linux. I check back frequently, because I do see the appeal of Linux. But windows just isn’t as bad (for me) as people make it out to be, and definitely not enough to deal with dual booting or virtualizing windows to maintain access to the games I play most.
As a messenger, this is objectively wrong. There may be some less than obvious customization options in slack, but it is so much more robust for messaging.
I mean, threads alone put slack in a whole other league.
If you’re being serious, I’d really like to know what you dislike about slack. It’s been a minute since I used it as my daily driver, but I find myself quite frequently irritated about not having enough control.
I’m surprised people don’t get it. Disagreeing about me bitching about it makes sense, but to not understand my complaint at all is a surprise.
I’m scrolling casually, see a text post, read the title to see what it’s about… decide if I want to click and read more. But I get this title…. Maybe the community it’s in will give me a clue what their topic is… not really.
Most of the time I just keep scrolling, but for whatever reason I felt like pointing it out.
OP failing to give even a hint as to the topic between the title (which exists specifically to convey the topic) and the beginning of the text as shown by my app…
Look, they’d get more helpful interactions if they just used the title for the titles purpose. And those who don’t want to participate don’t have to read an indeterminable amount before realizing the content and being able to make an informed decision.
It’s a pet peeve of mine, sure it’s not a big deal if one person does it every now and then, but some people don’t seem to understand the concept of a title. Might as well just omit it altogether with titles like this.
There’s a bit of configuration for the channel list that you can do to keep what you want where you want. Sounds like you have a section set to only show unread, that’s a setting. Also, there are back and forward keys (and shortcuts for them too) to move between a series of chats like a browser.
I use windows 11 and I don’t see what all the hate is for. Maybe it’s cuz I use Pro, and click a couple of buttons to hide the “news”… but it seems perfectly fine to me.
Interesting, teams has the worst video call quality I’ve ever seen. Trying to pair program is painful, can’t move too fast or the other person will miss what you did since the screen share frame rate is like 5.
Same VPN connection on slack, no noticeable lag, high frame rate, and very crisp resolution.
Edit: I left an optional team in teams, and still got a notification for a meeting that isn’t on my calendar, my meetings page, nor do I have access to in any other way.
I’m the guy who uses the emoji reactions that are built into outlook (for internal emails) to avoid anyone getting any more emails than they need to.
It’s funny bc, it’s actually the fact that I try to be courteous to others and their time that things like shitty titles bug me.
