Takes me back to the days when I was 9 years old making websites on angelfire, geocities, etc.

Friendly reminder that in 2023 ~90% of consumer internet traffic is done on a mobile device. Us power users and people pretending to work in their cubicles use desktops a ton (though both groups also use their smartphones extensively). Best practice is to design for mobile-first, especially if you're trying to optimize for search. Google now indexes with mobile usability priority, too.

ETA: That said, it works pretty well on mobile for me. Not sure if you made any changes in the last 3 hours (:

The new Discord mobile layout is even worse than the new Webflow designer layout.

Kinda looks like it's the original launch version of Instagram but sharing only with friends (approved followers) instead of publicly. Combined with that app from like 13 years ago where you could have your photos printed into postcards and sent to people... dang what was that called? That's a throwback.

Open rates for tracked marketing/sales emails are almost always determined by an image with a unique URL being loaded in an HTML email. So if you load remote content, it'll register as an open even if read receipts are blocked.

Not only that, but if your recipient has an iPhone and uses the Mail app (and a few other platforms now), the images are all loaded on Apple (or other) servers first as part of a privacy and safety process, registering as an Open. So it's even harder to tell if people are actually opening the emails or not.

I was like 12 when I got my first paycheck and probably bought Pokémon cards (which I still have) but no clue, really... 20 years later when I received my first payout from a company I co-founded, I bought a bottle of Hibiki 21... does that count?

Now take that data and use it to power a co-founder matchmaking network, rather than it just being between two people!

I wonder what this does for people who cannot picture things in their brains?

I love that Venezuela was totally fine with Guyana being the way it is for 100 years but now that there's oil. They're all REAL SHIT? meme.

Probably, because 90% of the tools that launch on Appsumo are kinda garbage.

Okay but there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with Homestar Runner. Well... yes there is, but there's nothing wrong with the site aside from it being built in Flash.
