@stevesmename @Iterable @emailgeeks @BlocksEdit Sorry I'm just replying now—better late than never! 😅 It gets minified at send time.

[Joshua Blauvelt @WebDevJoshB]

Boo...my ESP @Iterable minifies all the emails I deploy, and it breaks the layout in some email clients, specifically media queries in the Outlook App for iOS. #EmailGeeks #WebDev @emailgeeks

@Krellan You got this. One day at a time, like your byline (Learn Something New Every Day). 🫂

[Joshua Blauvelt @WebDevJoshB]

@codedamncom Can you be more specific; what is it that you want it to do?

[Joshua Blauvelt @WebDevJoshB]

Invest in better UX, progressive enhancement techniques; show me how ur different from ur competitors & I'm more inclined to use ur services; let u make 💸 off ads & tracking.

[Joshua Blauvelt @WebDevJoshB]

Yes, I sound like a curmudgeon, but if I have to allow cookies/disable adblocker to view your website, I'll go to your competitor or go without. #UX #UXDesign #webdev

We use Google Workspace like 1000s of other biz. This wk our sent emails are landing in #spam. We don't send bulk email. 18,280 emails sent via a shared IP were reported this wk. You'd think @AskWorkspace @Google @GoogleGSuite would have some sort of flag to auto investigate.🤬

@Malarkey Reminds me of the time I coded an email for Hyundai that used a generic stock image of a family, then several months later I saw the same image used in the outside advertising of a dental office. Boy that family gets around.

I mean, I know it's pretty easy to find out from a basic Google search, but still...

Sh!t I hate it when I start liking political posts when logged into my "Professional" account. #OopsIDidItAgain

@googlechrome I have you set to sync between computers; why don't my privacy settings also sync?

[Joshua Blauvelt @WebDevJoshB]

@edXOnline Account suggestion: Please add a frequency option to email subscriptions; the only option is to opt out entirely—I just want to change from daily to weekly. ✉️✉️✉️🙏

@DonnaLeigh5557 People are the worst. I loved your post!

@GarrettLevine @JamTakeTwo Some Carol Channing realness going on there!

@SergiiKirianov Circa 2014, when coding HTML emails, explaining how font stacks work to corporate overlords yet still having to "make it work" somehow. 🤯

[Joshua Blauvelt @WebDevJoshB]

@danstools00 Have used CSSFontStack for years (thanks!). Where did you get each font's compatibility percentages on Windows and Mac systems?

@melissamcewen Picture it: The Web 1996.

We knew nothing and had yet to bend the knee to #CSS.
