I do not go there. It is a land I will not venture towards. I still don't really understand Facebook. One day it will all go away.

You're in luck. Twitter is imploding. No one under 30 cares about Facebook.

The younglings I work with, by which I mean teachers, not kids, bang on about Tiktok all the time.
We could be cool. Just keep saying Mastodon and Threads and everyone will think you're down with the kids.

We're on a web forum. I'm not sure there is hope for any of us.

We're on a web forum. I'm not sure there is hope for any of us. And yet, for following coherent, threaded conversations, nothing has bettered this format. Which is not me being a luddite, it's just interesting to see how human communication using the internet has changed over time into less useful methods that evaporate more quickly (by which I mean are much harder to come back to once you've lost track of them)

To be honest I don't think I'd want the old internet back. During the 90s I was a web developer for a few years and it was a pain in the ARSE getting everything to work properly, and at that point you only had Netscape, Explorer and Opera to worry about.

Has anyone else had a Chrome update that's fucked up the folders function?
