So here's the thing. You can only violate people's legal rights and your own word so far before they lawyer up and come after you.

I really do hope Musk changes his mind and does the right thing - the employees deserve that. But it'll be fun as hell if he doesn't.

@SpaceLifeForm SERIOUSLY? It's my eyes that have the problem, not my brain. Sorry, but it's annoying to be spoken down to.
Show threadSpaceLifeFormDec 2, 2022

@matera

My apologies. My eyes are not that great either. That is what I do in AWI mode on desktop. Almost all graphics in the Home panel are not readable for me. If you are not using AWI mode, then maybe this will not really apply.

@matera

Also I am learning that your visible #ux may vary a lot depending upon which instance you are on. We are on different instances. Again, my apologies. I made a bad assumption that your #ux and my #ux would match or at least be relatively close.

Show threadSpaceLifeFormDec 3, 2022

@matera

#ux

Yep, it all depends. Depends if you are using an app or not. Depends upon how the image was created.

Screen shots of text may the biggest problem.

Somehow, it appears a post did not make it.

But, yes, the stuff with graphics can get tricky depending upon how it was created and whether you are using an app or browser.

It is client side. If you are using a browser on desktop, right click on the image, open in new tab.

You will be able to read it.

Show threadElias MårtensonDec 2, 2022
@rszasz @AkivaMCohen it's a bit blurry, but perfectly readable on my phone (using Tusky). It's possible that your client is adding more blurriness, but you should be able to read it using a different client.
