I mean fuck Google and all, but this is just an announcement that they are copying Firefox's way of display download information. Is there something inherently wrong with that?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's how they are talking in the blog post... You don't see it?

[–] leekleak 32 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I mean is this your first time hearing corporate/marketing speech on the internet? I don't like it myself either, but it is not like it kills children in africa...

** that we know of

Are you sure this wasn’t written by some poor intern under some form of duress?

“With the download tray, you can see a list of all your downloads from the past 24 hours in any browser window, not just the one in which you originally downloaded a file. The tray also offers in-line options to open the folder a download is in, cancel a download, retry a download should it fail for any reason, and pause/resume downloads.”

Of course it was. Such is the way.

Not first time but Jesus, it's so awful.

An awful lot of text for "We made a new Downloads UI."

[–] VelociCatTurd 30 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think it’s pretty brave of them to make the bold decision to do what Edge and Firefox literally already do.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I guess they had an epiphany.

  • Hey guys, boss needs some new feature so we can write a blog post to put out for the peasants to read.
  • Yeah ok, well, just write anything, doesn't matter.
  • Ok let's write about downloads, every peasant know about those.
  • Sure but spend just a few minutes on it. Make Sidney the AI write it but make sure he is not passively aggressive this time, we care about that, ok?
  • Sure boss, sure.

It overruns on mobile Safari, too. It’s Ok, I just used the new download feature to download the rest of the sentences.

Did you enjoy your core download journey?

[–] faceless 12 points 1 year ago

so they copied Mozilla's downloads ui? that's an improvement for chrome imo

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I guess I shouldn't be surprised if the page looks like shit on Firefox Mobile

[–] faceless 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

don't worry, it does (I use mull, which is a fork of Firefox for android)

Pro tip, just don't breath whenever the anger gets worse, you will pass out before you throw up! ;)
