Guess which assumption Outlook developers made. Meanwhile, if you try to log on to Outlook, you will have no clue who loged on before you, and no one will know you loged on from that machine. Guess which assumption those developers made. When I go to the university to teach, and use a public machine, is always funny to see a list of who is who in the GMail login page. GMail remembers every single login in from the machine. See, for example, how you log in to GMail vs. I have no contacts in Africa (other than the magreb), but I imagine a similar situation.īut most of the developers of things like Mozilla, Chrome, Gmail, etc are located in affluent regions like Cupertino, SF, LA, Seattle, Boston, and some European cities where even the bus they take has WiFi, and a lot of people have more than one device. My contacts in LatAm, Magreb, SE Asia and other parts report similar stories. But I see day in and day out less priviledged people that have to share a machine, work from cybercafes, etc. I live in Venezuela, and I am priviledged enough to own more than one device* (and some of those devices boot more than one OS). This is not an inherently right or wrong assumption. "Many people use the same computer with the same account, so the browser should work consistently for all of them" īut the reason we can not configure this crap, is that the Firefox crew is of the mentality of: Changing the key binding shouldn't require a software update.
