Great, now because of you lot they deleted timn and the world will never learn. The irony of changing the docs about versioning flows without documenting the change is delicious. Almost as delicious as the fact that archive.org exists.

@thomasfuchs Does the existence of pictures like this indicate how most people never try to read and understand charts?
When this exists, they will never learn that it's worth making the effort

@thomasfuchs first time I committed the feedback form over there. Like really, wtf‽ Hopefully it will be read by an actual person not another stupid micro$lop AI agent.

I find this absolutely insulting. The fact that Microsoft deems it appropriate to publish this utter slop tells me volumes about what they think of their readers.
It’s also heartbreaking. I learned so much from learn.microsoft.com way back when.
