And this constant bullshit is why I don't use Google Photos anymore. One misplaced tap and I'd be blowing up my Google account for the second time.

Facebook mobile playing up for anyone else?
FB lite is the same as mobile web; all pics and videos but no words on any posts in my feed.
Even my own; If I "edit" the words are there to change. But theyre invisible otherwise, as are everyone else's.
Pics show the same post, one in desktop mode.

I'm not sure what language this is. And nor can I uncover what happened to this Chrome plugin... no story, no other hits in a Google search. Just a non-english 404.

Moore proof OneNZ are still in the 20thC with their tech. They know precisely what my balance is but I still have to deal with a monthly barrage of pointless notifications. Custom notifications based on my own balance situation would be so easy.
