I’ll finally stop seeing its search bar constantly popping up on my parents’ browser toolbars!

Bold of you to say something nice about Windows here on Lemmy, of all places.

I miss having my library fully in mp3. I started using Deezer just for convenience, and I kept only the mp3 I have for rare songs and versions. Now every time Deezer kills a song in my playlists, I regret my decision, and I’m too lazy to rebuild my mp3 library. At least Deezer keeps the name of the song greyed out in the playlist, and if it finds another instance of the same song it’s easy to replace it.

In my company they legitimately try to convince us that our users love ads.

I conducted user research on one of our websites, which showed complaints about the amount of ad placements we have been throwing at them. The execs responded by telling me “but we are actually HELPING them, we’re showing them products that will improve their productivity and processes”. Then, they came up with ideas for new ways we can place MORE ads on top of the ones already there. I’m sure our users are loving it!

I use Deezer too. The only thing I miss is being able to bookmark my favorite radio stations. It’s so weird that we don’t have that yet!

Honestly, I’m surprised it took this long for Google to kill its main product over profits. This is in every big company’s textbook.
