A little while later you start getting different emails You've been laying out your site in tables, is the thing, and there's this new thing now, cascading style sheets, and you can use those for laying out your site. Does Dreamweaver do those? I dunno. Does Frontpage? Oh almost definitely not

@ifixcoinops@retro.social Most of that doesn't fit me, but the technical aspects 100% do. Frontpage to Dreamweaver. What a Journey.

@ifixcoinops@retro.social Okay, the thing that Gets My Goat about typing into a thingy with a Bold button is this. You've got a document. It's got a bit of bold text in it. You place the cursor next to the bold text. Will the next thing you type be bold, or not? (The answer is always "whatever would be most obnoxious". I have no idea how they have such good predictive technology for the sole purpose of making things bold when they shouldn't be and not bold when they should.) Sometimes this is a case of "is that space bold or not" (something I always want to have to wonder about), but sometimes it's literally whether placing the cursor on a formatting boundary puts it inside the formatting or not. When you're writing markup, you're screwing around with markup, but at least you don't have to deal with any of That.
