Ugh… Don’t get me started on HTML in emails. What was so wrong with plaintext for emails? Vomit (meant to type Comic, but the typo is staying) Sans? Non-W3 compliant contrast ratios? Nineteen embedded images?
Seriously, if I want to send you the pictures from the beach I can do it with an attachment.
Plaintext works, but as the great David Bowie said: “If it works, it’s out of date.”
