I'm clearly in the minority here, but I like the new text input on their desktop app. Visually seeing the text change when I create a code block or bold text right away, rather than after I submit the message, is very helpful.
I'm surprised the date text inputs part didn't mention anything about the date format, which is something I've seen users frequently confused over, especially the US format of mm/dd/yy which is different than what most of the rest of the world uses.
I thought the exact same thing, the "Calhoun incident" mentioned completely takes away from the rest of the examples showing that Yale is acquiescing to unreasonable demands. Not wanting to live in a building celebrating a violently pro-slavery historical figure is not at all unreasonable, and is not erasing history. Being anti-slavery and anti-racism isn't some "politically correct fad of the day" that nobody can keep up with.
Definitely the two most disturbing quotes from the article. They're admitting that citizens' data has been sold to so many companies that it's going to take 154 hours of research just to figure out which companies it was sold to.
From the headline of the article alone, it seems that part of the reason the world hasn't copied it is that it's labeled as "radical", when it really isn't (or shouldn't be) radical at all.
