Yeah problem is that is usually works. It work often enough that you get used to it. But then an app comes along that doesn't use it and its infuriating. Android has ALWAYS had a os based back button, so implementing gestures means they just work.

I used the iPhone 12 mini for about a year before I gave up and went back to android. Some of my thoughts:
I don't actually understand your comment about apps being easier to find. There is no way to organize them alphabetically. You can't choose which folders they go in. It's only "easier" because people default to searching for apps. Which is very annoying to me personally. My GF does it that way. But I really don't like it.
I am a little jealous of IOS widgets and the ecosystem. While I haven't tried a pixel watch yet, the apple watch is absolutely amazing and it's the only real reason for me considering to go back.
My two biggest gripes is that there is a serious inconsistency in their apps. I never hear people talk about it. But some apps, have their settings inside the actual apps. Other apps are you tied into the apple settings app. Most apps use gesture navigation. Some, especially older ones, don't react to it and still rely on a back button in the top left. Which was a good option when the phone were sub 5", but not anymore.
Other stuff, while the ecosystem is great, being locked into it is extremely annoying. Not being able to put a torrent app on the phone is annoying. There's still a lot of things you cant do.
Maybe I'll buy the iPhone 16, I seem to try it out every 4 or 5 years. But I doubt they'll fix anything other than the back button, because no one really complains about it.
Without a paddle. I haven't seen it in a few years but I remember just absolutely cracking up over it.
Not see it. But I hear this one.
"it's always in the last place you look"
No shit Sherlock. Why would I keep looking after I found it?
This is the main reason I used infinity on reddit. I've found a good site is scrolller.com
Might be a good substitute for you.
Yeah. Lots of people give it shit, but it does really "just work". I'm using endeavor right now and considering swapping back to Manjaro, mostly because I cannot for the life of me figure out why SMB won't work. Manjaro is the only distro I've had it work properly with little to no effort.
Factorio. All about letting the factory grow.
I also started playing wizards of legend recently. It takes maybe 20 minutes to get through the tutorial, then it's just game. I'm enjoying it so far
On the first day Lemmy said "hey guys, how do I not poop for 3 days". And there was poop memes.
On the second day, Lemmy created bean memes. It was also good.
On the third day, Lemmy created reposts that aren't technically reposts. It too was good.
It's pretty good. It feels like a kids friendly dark souls. Not nearly as hard, but some portions are pretty difficult. But it's got a good story and beautiful graphics. Highly recommend
I hear uncle bens instant rice is also an excellent place 😉
Yeah! Lots of research has been happening for the last decade or so. It seems Americans are finally getting passed it and realizing these drugs can actually be super useful.
Oh my god! Thank you. I just made my post about those exact same two gripes. Its so rare to see people complain about it and I really don't understand why.
I'm glad I'm not the only one
