When you try to look at a spreadsheet and there are too many columns even in portrait mode, I open up the phone.

For some reason nobody figured out "zoom all the way out" functionality on the phone yet

Unfold the phone, then go into Developer Options and increase the Minimum Width setting until you have the screen real estate you wanted. That'll solve the issue of things not properly being zoomed out when you unfold it.

Next, fold the phone and increase the setting again until you're happy with how that one looks too.

I don't want to have to do this every time I find a page that's too wide. I just want to pinch out to zoom out and then zoom back in when I'm done. It should have a zoom stop at 100% so it's easy to find the setting to zoom back to normal after zooming in or out. It's such an easy concept, yet nobody implemented it.

You don't do it "every time", you set it once and then never change it again.

I don't want to be zoomed out by default and have to zoom everything

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Then pick a middle ground setting that works for you and be done with it.

Also please stop being a whiny little brat. It's unattractive.

I already solved the issue by having a foldable phone

Except that you didn't, otherwise you wouldn't be complaining! And as such this argument has come full circle.

I gave you a fix, you don't want it; fine, go ahead and stay miserable, but that's on you. Keep me out of your misery.

Blocking you now. Bye.
