I wanted to take some notes on the airplane so I pulled up Notion but it wouldn’t load because of lack of internet. This stuff kills me, it’s not acceptable

It's symbolic - there's tons of other places where I can't get great network connection. I don't care for most apps, but I want my note-taking apps and some others to work. So I disagree partially.

Amazing how well that 13-year old take has held up 😍. Not only does offline matter even less now than it did, the technology to do it is finally almost trivial (service workers). Glad we never wasted time on attempting it before that!

Replying to @dhh @wycats @jlongster
If the tech is trivial, why do so many apps fail to do it properly?

Because it’s not even worth the comparably trivial effort that is service workers vs the time before service workers! That just goes to show what an utter niche concern this is for the vast majority of apps!
