I believe it. We needed to make some coupons for the kid's Easter eggs this year. Google led me to Adobe Spark Post. I couldn't figure out how to get anything done and the app immediately started trying to upsell me for some sort of subscription. My more social-media-savvy wife told me to download Canva instead. I did, and got what I needed done easily in a couple of minutes, and then I deleted Spark Post.

- paulcole 6y agoI think you are selling short your social-media-savviness. You seem pretty capable here on HN which fits my definition of social media.
- jordemort 6y agoPerhaps, but she's done it from the side of managing the social media presence for a business; I have not. I don't need any design assistance to post on HN, but I was going for something flashier than "Verdana on beige" for the Easter eggs.
- paulcole 6y agoMy point was more that calling someone social-media-savvy on HN is usually code for (at best) someone who works in marketing who does something that’s “not real work.” Not accusing you of that (and your explanation makes perfect sense) but trying to keep in mind that HN in itself is social media and a marketing tool for a VC fund.
