Firefox is used too little nowadays. This is a bad thing for several reasons. The main reason is that it created a monopoly of Chromium-based browser engine which powers Google Chrome, Opera, MS Edge and most other browsers. Developers then optimize webpages mostly for this engine. The same thing happened 20 years ago when Microsoft dominated the market with Internet Explorer. Firefox however still has some advantages even for a regular user, and particularly when using Android-based mobile phone. One example that is very little known: You can play Youtube without ads, without paying for premium Youtube, and even with Youtube on the background or even with the screen turned off. Don’t you believe me? Just try it yourself!

I got the task to fix some typography issues done in a document in Canva. I have never used Canva before, I am used to either regular text processors (LibreOffice Writer, MS Word) or LaTeX or Scribus or Adobe InDesign/Illustrator. Fixing badly justified text by applying proper hyphenation and forcing non-breaking spaces after single-letter prepositions (in Czech language) should do the job. However, it appears that Canva completely lacks both the feature to enable hyphenation, or to acknowledge non-breaking spaces – it just considers nbsps as regular spaces! Bad typography is guaranteed with such a setup. However, I managed to circument both limitations and found reasonable, but ugly and non-scalable workarounds how to make the documents already created in Canva look at least a bit more OK. For any serious typography, avoid Canva if possible.

TL;DR: Papírová byrokracie jak z minulého století, online rezervační systém, který vám potvrdí termín, ale pak vás na místě nenajdou v databázi, míchání lidí jdoucích na test na covid před hlavním vchodem do celé nemocnice pro pacienty. Neprofesionální a neškálovatelné.
