I wonder if even this joke is becoming dated. I don't think I've seen a floppy icon in quite a while.

- PopeDotNinja 7y agoI haven't had a CD/DVD drive on a computer in 5 years. I think I might have had a floppy drive in the mid 2000s, but it's been a long enough that I can't remember.
- teel 7y agoMay I ask what software you use mostly? I just checked couple of programs I have open on my computer right now and the floppy as save icon is very used still; tortoise svn client, adobe reader, excel, winscp, notepad++, eclipse, all more or less up to date and showing floppy icon. Hell, if someone put me sitting in front of a program I never used before, and said do this and that and save it, and all I was only seeing was picture of usb stick, or ssd drive, or a cloud, without "Save" written anywhere, I am not sure how long I would be looking for the "save" command :)
- Scarblac 7y agoThis makes me realise that I go days without using anything besides Firefox, Emacs, Spotify, and terminal windows (with many programs running inside of course but they don't have icons).
- catalogia 7y agoI've managed to find it in calibre and inkscape, although not in audacity, gimp, firefox, emacs, or transmission.
