This thread is a whine and winge fest to collect complaints of functionality missing in our world of text UIs. I’ll start off with:

  • SMS 2.0 (“RCS”): The new standard for SMS (Rich Communcation Services) only has an Android 8.1 app -- nothing for the desktop at all
  • kbin/mbin
  • Lemmy: Neonmodem Overdrive seems dysfunctional; some servers have an old. FE which works with links browser because it has a JavaScript engine, but it’s a terrible UX; and nothing works as far as offering offline access.
  • Mastodon voting and poll creation: (though I have not tested https://brutaldon.org/)
