Technology

I had pretty much given up using my seven and a half year old iPad; it hasn't had a software upgrade in over three years and even though I only really use it for web browsing and email it had got really slow and I kept defaulting to using my phone instead. I charged it up again a few days ago, though, as I thought I would try using it to browse Yuletide when not using my laptop rather than trying to read fic on a tiny phone screen, and I discovered that actually, it seems to work perfectly well for everything apart from Twitter and Facebook. Maybe it's just trying to make a point?

Are those two any great loss, I wonder? :o)

Maybe, being 7 and a half years old, it is nostalgic for older days of fandom.

If you don't mind me being literal, I wouldn't be surprised if it's just the sheer "heaviness" of FB and Twitter that are the problem - FB in particular is ridiculous. Older websites, or ones that don't expect all their users to be using the latest tech, are a much better bet.
