Wow yeah. Flashbacks to when Gmail Invites were cool! Google too.

I used to work for a company where the SSO screen had a nice corporate happy people at the office type of image. 25mb. I was in Brazil on a crappy roaming 2g service and couldn't login at all. I know most of the work happens on desktop but geee.....

Oh speaking on mobile, I remember when I tried to use Jira mobile web to move a few tickets up on priority by drag and dropping and ended up closing the Sprint. That stuff was horrible.

Literally decades: the login page looked like that when I joined google in 2007.
