Yah, I love that idea of follow up but I imagine if the software is used by hundreds of thousands or more people, they can’t follow up on every case.You’d think that could be largely automated but who knows.

This person gets it. Thank you.

I agree with Nouveau_Brunswick here.
And to add: to @hperrin@lemmy.ca , are you not also a user of software and do you not see room for improvement in many apps? That’s where I am rn: I just want them to try harder to communicate a tiny bit more info when things go so wrong that a message has to be displayed on my screen. Telling me “There’s nothing you can do to fix the problem” would be a big help, for instance. Make sense?

See my update/EDIT above. I feel like most of the replies here are on the same track as you but I still think there’s a better way.

“What? Oh that? That always happens”
Yeah, you’re right, but I still would prefer to see something telling me whether something I did caused the problem or something went wrong in the software / on the server. From this thread, I’m getting that my wishes will not be heard.
- Comment on Oops, something went wrong! 1 week ago:
Maybe then, the message could be, “An internal error has occurred and we’re going to work on fixing it but there’s nothing you can do to fix it yourself right now”. It’s the “Oops” that fries my grits.
- Comment on Oops, something went wrong! 1 week ago:
Sorry but how does that help me?
- Comment on Oops, something went wrong! 1 week ago:
OK but then inherent in what you’re saying is also the message, “… and don’t contact us about this, because we don’t want to deal with it” which is also mildly infuriating to me.

Oh! Interesting! So for you this is in the uncanny valley?
I’m on the fence about that.

I totally get what you’re saying but did you listen to the recordings? This might be a breakthrough.

Though I don’t see how there could be a connection (other than coincidental) between OP browsing on Archive and it being removed from there.
