This is VERY disappointing for a variety of reasons. And I say that as an avid user of DropBox. I'll be investigating alternatives, and likely moving away from BoxCryptor very soon.

1K Followers 4K Following Twin Cities native. Journalist and pop-culture junkie. Buy my books: Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? and The Totally Sweet '90s.@hemantmehta Some might not know. I had a lesbian girlfriend who didn't realize till much later. Society's standards, shaped by religion,tell girls they are supposed to like boys and vice versa. Sometime, it takes getting away from those lying influences to realize who you are.
I can't do it. I can't give this guy any more content to support what he's turned this platform into. So, no more posts from me here (not that anyone left will care). Find me at leonotenboom.com and @[email protected] . Toodles.
Corollary: if you want to think well, learn to write well.
You have to think clearly in order to write clearly, so if you want to hire people who think well, look for good writers.
Prepare, just in case:
Even if you don't plan on leaving Twitter (legit), 👉🏻make a plan👈🏻. Set up an account at an alternative, and let people know to find you there, in case. Given the staff exodus, feels like a tech problem at Twitter could easily take it down for an extended period. 😱
Since many folks are switching to @[email protected] as their primary social media, can you please suggest to me what all accounts to follow to improve my feed? I really appreciate any help you can provide.
THAT DOES IT! I'm going back to Myspace. If only there was a way to mute the people/companies/bots I don't want to spend time reading.🙄
@codyplof Camtasia if all you want to do is record your screen (and can inset your video if you wish). OBS if you want to have tons of flexibility in recording, streaming, switching screens and cameras. Can't imagine living without either of them.
Yeah, it kinda is. That and 6 more items for the week: 7takeaways.com/1488

@askleo Excellent idea, Leo! And whee! I'm first to join!
Writing forces you to generate ideas and enables you to retain them.
Perhaps today is, in fact, the new normal. "The pattern for the rest of the 2020s is not the familiar routine of the pre-covid years, but the turmoil and bewilderment of the pandemic era." (From last week's 7takeaways.com/906)
"The pandemic is like a doorway." via economist.com/leaders/2021/1… I may have mentioned this before, but I've been wondering the same thing. Rather than waiting for things to return to some definition of normal -- the way things used to be -- perhaps we're already there. 1/2

@askleo what about the @Raspberry_Pi ? that boots by default from a SD card!
At this point, NFT success is about marketing, not art.
