To OP and the few other comments sarcastically dunking on the blogger for just discovering RSS: why? It’s not exactly drowning in advocates today, and there’s basically a whole generation that wasn’t around when Google killed off Reader. What if we treated advocacy like this like the good thing it is?

4·4 months agoThe hope is, I guess, that outcomes like this will make others think twice. (But since these aren’t even the “think once” types…)
To be fair, the joke is “it goes up to 11.”

Ctrl+F: “thread” “conversation” zero results
I feel like people have forgotten how email worked before, when webmail providers were emulating the desktop client model of “received messages go in Inbox, Sent folder is for sent.” Gmail’s conversation view was shockingly intuitive, one of those “why hasn’t it always been this way?” things that feels so obvious in retrospect.

It’s worth noting that a number of other providers now sell S3-compatible storage services that are completely separate from Amazon, but let you interact with them using any of the S3 tools that have sprung up.

I think we’re focusing on different aspects. My comment was limited to the way main menus worked — “Play feature” or whatever would just about always be the pre-selected option. I was replying to this:
Those old DVD menus that wanted me to mess with extras sucked.
99% of DVD menus would have the “Play movie” pre-selected, letting you activate it with a single press of the Play or Select button.
Have you checked the signup page for your Lemmy instance lately? It amounts to “write us a short
essaypersonal statement of what you intend to do here and we’ll manually approve your account sometime, hopefully soon.” I know this is somewhat standardized among instances, and it’s there for a noble reason, but it’s without a doubt friction for everybody who goes to sign up, and a barrier to entry for a good chunk of people, who might not yet even fully know why they’d want to join aside from “my friend says this is cool.”
