Gee, maybe Signal shouldn’t keep harassing people to turn on notifications and take no for an answer?
Thoughts, @Mer__edith?
@Mer__edith Oh, and would you look at that, right on cue…
The opposite of “yes” is “no”, not “not now” or “ask me later”.

@aral @Mer__edith to me its a sign of enshittification, see this classic example from Microsoft if you dare to use the web interface via a browser
@RichBartlett @Mer__edith There was a time Microsoft wasn’t shit?
@aral @Mer__edith I wasn't there at the beginning so I can't say, I started with Windows 3.11 and NT 4.
Brad Macpherson@RichBartlett @aral @Mer__edith Ethics has never been a foundational part of Microsoft - Altair BASIC was written partly using stolen computer time, and only after having been sold as vapourware (they claimed to have it under active development when that didn't start until after the deal was made).
Pair of chancers who made it big - Del Boy and Rodders with no charm and even fewer scruples.

@aral @RichBartlett @Mer__edith There was a short time where they looked like they were at least trying to be less shit. Around Win2k through windows 7. Sure vista had issues but at least those issues came from them trying to fix stuff.
