<p>Maybe is thing about Gmail about "This message is spam", that is a Gmail feature not anything standard.<p>Same as Gmail broke IMAP standard, or Gtalk XMPP standard.<p>Google can do whatever they please, they've become the standard of humanity surveillance.</p>

<p>I have been observing this for the last 2-3 years (4 postfix servers sysadmin)<p>Gmail cannot be whitelisted anymore: spam, phishing,... 
On the other hand, if your users redirect twitter or linkedin notifications from their domain to a gmail account, Google claims you are sending too fast and is suspicious (and throttles or blocks ip).<p>Hilarious.</p>

<p>RSS readers look like email clientes because due to some osmosis with Usenet readers:
<a href="https://web.media.mit.edu/~kkarahal/generals/VSpaces/usenet.html" rel="nofollow">https://web.media.mit.edu/~kkarahal/generals/VSpaces/usenet....</a><p>and such metaphor exchange predates 2002 NetNewsWire by far.<p>Many other misconcepts start from here on in the article. Like popularity of RSS due to this software and not due to people acquiring more Internet culture.<p>Even wikipedia article is off:
"According to FeedBurner, NetNewsWire was the most popular desktop newsreader on all platforms in 2005."<p>NetNewsWire supported platforms in 2005: Macos PPC.<p>Am I getting all this wrong?</p>

<p>I am a linux user for 26 years. And used windows since 3.11 up to 2005. After that point I just helped people with windows, never worked with it.<p>I had this friend while my kid went to school with his kid, he was a musician.
He absolutely was frightened of even handling me the mouse of his windows 7 setup in case I break his DAW, cherry audio tools and midi mixers just by me showing him a website.
Also helped to switch some dlls (hi didn't know how to kill background task to release dll to be replaced) and edit windows registry cause he needed an upgrade for some pirated software.<p>I have seen many more nightmarish stuff hapenning in windows, even on holy sacred windows xp.<p>On the other hand my mother has been using debian xfce in her acer touch screen laptop for 15 years. No issues. Many elder people got in shock when windows 8 made all those changes.<p>So whenever windows users talk about linux confusion I smirk.</p>

<p>If I open a nfs doc with, let's say Libreoffice, will I not download whole file?<p>On a second thought, I think you are looking at webdav as sysadmins not as developers. Webdav was designed for document authoring, and you cannot author a document, version it, merge other authors changes, track changes without fully controlling resources. Conceptually is much like git needs a local copy.<p>I can't imagine how to have an editor editing a file and file is changed at any offset at any time by any unknown agent whitouth any type of orchestration.</p>

<p>Subversion works ok over webdav, it has done it for decades.<p>Mounting a directory through nfs, smb or ssh and files are downloaded in full before program access them. What you mean?
Listing a directory or accessing file properties, like size for example do not need full download.</p>
