Watched my coworker move her cursor to the right edge of her right-hand monitor to get it to over to the left side of her left-hand monitor. When I offered to show her how to adjust her display settings, she said she was used to it and didn’t want to change it. I don’t think I can walk by her desk while she’s working ever again.
What have you got?
People who take a photo of their monitor instead of a screenshot.
People who take a screenshot instead of sending a link. I don’t want to see your crusty shitphone or Windows UI, thank you very much.
Or, as a web developer: users who take a screenshot of a problem but completely exclude the URL and/or any other identifier I’d need to actually find the relevant record(s) so I can hope to reproduce the problem and find its cause.
Screenshots are so much faster than a link though on a phone. I do crop mine before sending, but I send a lot of Screenshots in my group chats.
It’s faster? For me it’s a lot faster to hit the share sheet and send a URL than it is to screw around with a screenshot (which is also larger and takes longer to send when using a slow VPN).
I’m guilty of this for texting or other phone-specific communications.
Sure, I could take a screenshot on the computer, email it to myself, download it to my phone, then add it to a text… Or, I have a camera right there. There has to be a good reason to not take the easy route.
Just use KDE connect to send files between your Phone and PC. Much simpler, and for a photo that would take literal seconds.
If your messager can’t be used on a computer I feel sorry for you. Signal, Whatsapp, Telegram all have windows or browser clients
Why would a for-profit company spend three millions to develop the desktop application, then a million per month to maintain it, in order to lose your personal data therefore making less money?
