Cursed version scheme where you just keep appending 9 to the end (0.9, 0.99, 0.999, ...)

My old HDD keeps reporting faulty sectors. It recovers from these errors (not even doing a reassignment) so it keeps hovering at 20 - 40, but best to do a backup neofox_sweat

rant, touch buttons @anthropy The epitome of this are the Ford cars I'm familiar with. One is the top model with the latest features and stuff, the other is a "budget" model (or the most "budget" one after they slashed the real budget models).

The latter has a volume knob. Perfectly usable, everyone knows how it works and can handle it without looking.
The former has a touch area that's slightly sunk-in, and you slide your finger to the left/right to decrease/increase volume. When trying to figure out where it is without looking, you often inadvertently use it. Everyone hates it. It's the most unnecessary and useless redesign of an established feature I can think of.

@stefan When they stop running the activation servers for V2, I think it's morally perfectly fine to use alternative means to keep using the software. brdAngel

So the aspect I'm worried about, and which is stopping me from giving it a try, is the long-term development. What's going to happen once the AI bubble bursts? What if they want to increase their profits further? Would they move previously available core features over into the subscription? With the application being free, they could easily argue that users never purchased a proper lifetime license making the same promises as with V1 and V2, so it's only fair they're at Canva's mercy.

Feels weird that the software suite I use for my art has become a mere vehicle to drive Canva's growth

@catraxx Yeah, but I'd rather have something like :pointer-hover instead of a feature query that forces me to restructure my code. They could do it with :focus and :focus-visible, so why not here? neofox_googly_shocked

Pretty stupid that I need to rewrite my CSS to not apply :hover on touch devices, instead of mobile browsers handling :hover in a way that isn't weird
