A photo shared online of a city is often (but not always) a proxy for appreciation of the urban landscape or experience. Parisians have mobilized around a hashtag to collectively document their city’s neglect of their iconic and beloved public living room. theguardian.com/world/2022/f…
Hey @HBO business daddy, did you 'accidentally' forget to migrate @iamJohnOliver from @HBONordic to @HBOMax? Northern Europe is asking on Twitter, and reviews of the new service are flagging content irregularities that overshadow performance lifts.
Hellllloooooo @TraegerGrills! Did you know your app still doesn't convert between imperial to metric properly? Why have a feature if it doesn't work at all? 3rd year in a row I'm also pointing out your app doesn't work in landscape mode (accessibility issue for some) #inclusion

Lørdagens begivenheder har fået interessen for førstehjælp til at boome hos danskerne - i hvert fald at dømme efter @Google-søgninger. Førstehjælp: 4-doblet i dagligt gennemsnit. Førstehjælpskursus: 5-doblet. #Euro2021 #EM2021

The colors are so glaringly ROYGBIV that it almost feels dumb, but seeing it in use on the trains and also on artist designed posters show how powerful vibrant colors are in communication – at Manhattan, NY
