  1. There is an online service provider in #Canada that I have been using for a long time. Like, since 2000. I'm pretty sure it's a small, independently-run organization -- maybe even a one-person #shop. I've never tried to find out.

    It was around for years before I first used their services. I still use them today, though I don't actually have to do so very often -- think #renewals, #annual or less often. They'll probably still be here when I'm dead, run by the children of the founder or something.

    The #website and its user interface - what today might be called a #dashboard, but we weren't that fancy back then - hasn't changed in those 26 years. Someone who is used to slick "one page app" websites with animations and #CSS transition effects and all that stuff would undoubtedly describe it as "clunky" at best, and run screaming from it at worst.

    But you know what else is true about the #site?

    It still works just fine.

    It has never been #down or #offline when I needed it.

    It has never given me an #error page.

    It has never frustrated my attempts to do my regular #transactions - just simple, regular clicks on clearly-labelled #buttons, and it goes through.

    It is incredibly #fast. Milliseconds for a few kilobytes of HTML to transfer, and the page is there, done.

    It has never had a security #breach of my info.

    They have never #spammed me.

    Anyone who first got online after about 2005 completely missed this era. The one where #websites WORKED and did what you needed.

  8. Now I’m getting #spammed on #mastodon. I’m not sure that was a great choice to migrate. I’m giving a try to Threads, although I despise Meta, I’m not convinced I’ll be using it at all, nonetheless the state of social media messaging is terrible.

    I never got why they used a manual process - but was too busy worrying about the results to care that much 😆

    Sorry I #spammed you on each message in the thread - I forgot to remove your name from the subsequent replies 😱
