This week, Verizon shut down #Bluejeans, an also-ran videoconferencing service the company bought for *$400 million* in 2020 as a panic-buy to keep up with #Zoom. As they lit that $400 mil on fire, Verizon praised its own vision, calling Bluejeans "an award-winning product that connects our customers around the world, but we have made this decision due to the changing market landscape":

RIP BlueJeans. It was always a solid service for us pre-Covid. Verizon definitely blew $400 million on it though. Blew it right away. #BlueJeans
#Verizon buying #BlueJeans in 2020 for $400 million and deciding to shut it down now has to be a candidate for largest impressive tech fails.
I’ve used / supported the product prior to 2020 acquisition and I can’t help but think the stupid name along with people continually asking others to “join a BJ meeting” probably contributed to the failure #TechNews
@rockybandit Welp. Looks like here's why #BlueJeans didn't make the list:

Para recordarlo elegimos un tema de #DavidBowie, #BlueJeans. En el video, que forma parte de una breve película, el Duque Blanco es a la vez un torpe joven que trata de ganarse a una chica y el cantante de la banda ficticia Screaming Lord Byron. Su particular atuendo se corresponde con la vestimenta típica albanesa, en alusión a una conocida pintura que Thomas Phillips hizo del poeta en 1813. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZnryZ5rDbs

Hey Mastadon!
My fave jeans for years were Levi's 512s, which are no longer made. My last remaining pairs are starting to wear out, so I need to know which current Levi's jeans are the closest to 512s in fit and style and/or which jeans made by someone else might meet my needs. Since Mastadon knows everything, I'm sure the answer is out there.

#Creepiest video messaging apps based on users votes :)
Threema seems to be the best, and say it is the first time I hear the name ^^
For me, it would be jitsy hosted on private server and #https connection the best one or Telegram one to one.
There is also #ElementCall on #Matrix that is not listed ^^ But still have to try it!
For the worst, I would say #Facebook Messenger and WeChat.
What would be the best/worst for you?

En logiciel propriétaire équivalent à zoom, on m'a parlé de bluejeans.com
Qu'est-ce que ça vaut en terme de qualité de service et aussi par rapport à l'éthique et aux failles?
