Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

No More Desserts... Android 10.

Mr E · 2019-08-22 15:24:19

I thought it was a nice little routine to name Android versions after desserts, but looks like the next version is just going health conscious and will be called simply Android 10 (instead of Q) The main reason is global brand recognition (not everyone knows what kitkat or nougat is, apparently!)…

Probably hit a wall with a recognisable dessert that begins with Q.

Not many sweet/candy/treat names starting with Q anyway. Not surprising.

Has anyone ever said "I was going to upgrade my phone but I don't know what nougat is"? Cant see that ever being an issue.
