    How much android experience do you have? If I felt like Apple devices had basic options and acceptable UI patterns I’d probably be on the same page. But alas, besides all the shady anti-standards and anti-repair things they do, the UI just literally feels extremely lacking to me. Like how the fuck is a universal back button not a thing? How come I have to struggle to do all the most basic shit? Why in the absolute fuck would you put your url bar at the fucking bottom of the screen??

    No apple, fuck your gestures, I want a back and home button. It’s bad enough that their shitty influence changed the defaults on android like that, but at least android has the option to revert to buttons. I have to use Apple devices for work and it is painful every single time. I literally cannot get used to some of the bonehead decisions. On android they typically either don’t fuck up the UI royally, or they provide an option somewhere I can change to get back to the way I prefer things. Shouldn’t be that hard to understand your users aren’t always wrong…
