The ones in Hull are all cream coloured: https://www.thek6project.co.uk/2023/07/13/hull-university-ea...

The crowns are also ground off I think

https://www.kcom.com/about-us/history/ they were operated by a separate company, so the crown wasn't appropriate.

This is a bit different to the Reader scenario. They're not shutting down Google Groups, they've shut down one particular group, without explanation. I think the symfony community would be happy if we could just get to the data to move.

It's not: Google doesn't care about its users in both cases.

I wouldn't say that they don't care. They certainly appear not to prioritise the customer, who when selling services should always be the single most important priority.

Composer (getcomposer.org) and Packagist (packagist.org) are largely a popular replacement for PEAR, though once you need a C extension (PECL), you're right, it does become a pain.

What specifically ties it to Symfony?

Fired them an email, don't really expect or care for a response, just want to make some noise about it.

You should absolutely expect a response. The ICO was set up exactly for cases like these and is funded by the taxes you are paying.

Make sure you have filled in the correct complaint forms and provided your personal details. Sending an email with a link to the lew.io site or this HN thread is useless to them.

The ICO does have a limited budget and powers though, so responding promptly to all complaints might not be possible.

It's not uncommon to hear "Can I bum a fag?", which translates to "Please could I have one of your cigarettes?"

I knocked one of these up a while ago, used a stylesheet that's supposed to be good for an iphone, I haven't got one to try myself.
