Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

What's the inscription next to it? "Donkey Repub..." ? ๐Ÿ˜

TIL this share symbol is android specific.

As an iOS user the Android share icon makes no sense. How does that icon represent sharing? The iOS one is much clearer.

Icons generally dont have to make sense. The universal save icon being a floppy disk is a good example. It just needs to be recognizable.

I think it's meant to show how one becomes two. One person shares... something, and then that something has doubled. I'm just used to it by now. Never really had to give it thought.

Almost as good as the car sharing sign in Germany

Explanation: "sharing" and "cutting in two pieces" can both be translated as "teilen"
