I tried looking at the reviews for a monitor, and when I clicked “see more reviews” I got redirected to a page asking me to login and to provide my mobile phone number (which I didn’t do for privacy reasons).

On Instagram I was confused at everyone else mentioning Instagram stories because I only have the option of uploading pictures and videos. Then I found out that it’s something you can only do if you use Instagram on a phone… I swear I’ve came across a few sites that wouldn’t even let you sign up if you were using a PC

I only ever browse social media on a PC and that’s the way it will always be. Sometimes I can’t help but feel like desktop/computer users are becoming an afterthought. Anyone else have similar feelings? 🫠

    Sorry for being meta but I think this belongs in rants more than in CC

      Sorry, is there a rants community? I wasn’t aware there was one so I apologize if it’s out of place here. It’s not something I’m angry about it’s just something I find mildly annoying and I was wondering how many people can relate 😅

        I think it’s fine personally as well, but I can see it brushing up against these rules:

        • Keep the conversation nice and light hearted

        • Avoid controversial topics such as politics or societal debates

        It’s a slightly contentious issue, so not as easy to keep it lighthearted when people want to complain about it, and technically it could be considered a “societal debate.”

      I’m not a mod or anything but I think it’s fine. At least it’s not some of the political or doomer stuff that you see here sometimes
