I wonder what the average is, i.e, how many people have to see an ad to click it. Only time I seem to click those ads seem by mistake

100% agreed, the new versions of the site; especially the mobile version is unbearably slow

Very cool, hard to imagine the constraints they had when that was created. Reminds me of an interview I heard with Bill Joy a while back (creator of vi + worked on the Java language in its beginnings). "We solved problems that do not e

Perhaps not 100%, but I've never considered installing the app. The regular mobile experience on Reddit is unbearable.

> Forget any pride of craftsmanship – you're going to churn out embarrassing junk. McKenzie was at least somewhat correct. Very rarely do you end up in a place where you have time to create something you are truly proud of.

At some point it just got too slow, and the browser was just not up to scratch. Still the best looking phone ever made..

I have two Nokia N9's (running Meego) at home still. I used N9 as my daily driver until about 3 years ago. The failure of that magnificent OS, combined with the failure of the successor (Jolla / Sailfish) still annoys me.

Not all can freely choose platforms. Clearly a fully free one would be ideal, but unless you do web development, who has that kind of luxury?

I have to say the main reason I did not install my country's (Norway) corona-tracing-app is that they said it could not be made safe if the source code was public. Nice to see other countries do the right thing.
