Such a sensationalist post. The ramble about designers being responsible is very shallow. “Designers” at these companies don’t have much say in what needs to be designed, they just have to figure out how it will look. From coffee makers to

Another thing that helped imessage cement its position was that teens often had an ipod and you could use imessage on an ipod, so those teens talking to their friends were using imessage and when they switched to iphone that mental model ca

This whole debacle has somehow made Apple. responsible for fixing SMS, which is not their job to do so. I really hope Apple holds their ground and doesn’t cave to this pressure to make iMessage more interoperable. For the longest time nobod

Blue vs green bubbles is a subtext of an unspoken class system: iPhone = for rich people Android = for poor people Thus if you’re a teen and you have a green bubble, you are poor.

You are a great example. It’s this mentality which is the problem — that only PMs are thinking about customer/biz success and so they must prioritize and figure out what everyone should work on and when it should be done. Let’s do a re

mastodon could’ve been the one if there was an avenue for someone with a strong product sense to lead it paired with better marketing. Instead we got a bunch of nerds using words like federated, self-hosted, open to talk about it and ensure
