Hotzilla

I refuse to use discord, it is basically malware. Selfhosting is the only way, and TS3 works great for that.

Nokia was lead by engineers, which was it's strength, but eventually also caused it's downfall. This is why these things were so good.

Engineers told that the fullscreen displays without keyboard is never as good as physical keyboard.

Engineers told that 1 day battery life is not enough, the system need to be designed so that it can last a week.

They were right.

BUT apple's marketing and slick design convinced the American market that you can give up on those features. Nokia could easily made the same design, but didn't because engineers thought that users need those features. When they turned ship and accepted it, apple had its foot between the door already.

Yeah, I was working on it, and it was awesome.

Nokia should have continued developing the Linux Qt system maemo/meego. I was working with it as subcontractor in Nokia, and it was awesome. The Qt/C++ was really fast to code, and you could basically port KDE apps into it with small effort.

If they would have continued with it, we could have had three major OS in phones.

I was leading architect in internal UI design tools, and the tools had features that android/apple toolsets not even now have. Mainly because you could run the Qt app with PC hardware without any emulation.

Firefox probably exist for iOS but I assume plugin support to be poor, because of apple.

Firefox for Android, AdBlock, Firefox -> Chrome user agent fake plugin. Works very well without any ads or issues.

This supports PiP which is YouTube premium feature.

I would jump ship instantly to something better if the content would be there.

Web today is three companies in a trenchcoat. It is bit sad that the innovation of late 90's has almost disappeared. I do hope Fediverse/ActivityPub would create this next version of free web, which is impossible for companies to control.

I have lived the time when unpatched windows was the norm. Oh the network worms which roamed freely and created huge bot nets. Sad that Microsoft has forgotten that.

One very important detail missing here is that Windows 10 is going to be end-of-support in 2025. You won't get security updates.

It is going to be shitshow.

Well, win10 is going End-of-life next year.

5h in to the game, and just scratched the surface. Feels very good.

Oh hell yeah, Teams is far from perfect, but it is still light years ahead of webex
