I guess they are living up to their name: less threads. Maybe they should branch out to other products and compete in other markets like Headcase (phone covers) and Stickermule.
Fun fact: "less" means "without", not "fewer", which is what you meant when you said "less threads".

Is that the company's definition? Or the standard English definition? I thought the standard English definition was "fewer". I never looked up the word, but just assumed from the context other people have used it during my lifetime. Either way, I think it is an example I am lousy at comedy and the English language :( Sidenote: "Nickell and DeHart invited users to post their designs on a dreamless thread (hence the na…

The difference is between "less" as a stand-alone word, and "less" as a suffix.
I really think having a dedicated native app is a huge hassle for most businesses today. The web has come a long way and is no longer plagued by the perf issues of old. I'd imagine having to support both, sync up features and styles would get extremely difficult both logistically and financially. Far easier to just have a responsive site and be done with it. Probably save a bit of money on the payroll side too, front…
Yeah, no more working offline or in places with poor internet connectivity. Instead of small efficient applications we run multiple instances of web browsers, each instance consuming at least 1-2 Gb of RAM (even just to show text chat, like Slack), and they constantly do something even when they are not used. My CPU indicator is always at 5-10% CPU load even when I'm not doing anything, because all these apps are con…
1) Responsive site == a site you visit in your native browser, no one is talking about Electron or similar technologies. ecomm/retailers would never use that.
2) Electron is missing the point...why even use native at all of you're a retailer when you can have a website that does both?

Must've changed since the early days when I bought 20+ of their shirts. Ended up wearing most gardening, etc and never had any tear or feel flimsy at all. Been many years since I bought from them though.

Oh... Now I understand. You're right. Disregard my previous comment below. Thanks.
As for the "fewer" vs "less" thing, I'd say most people get that wrong.

And even that can really fuck with a business. 30%.
Okay, but that has nothing to do with the original conversation we were having.
