Blue Train posted:Seems like a problem that could be solved by simply having a constant back button, preferably at the bottom where someone's thumb is rather than at the top of an 18" long phone And what does that dedicated back button take you back to? To the previous screen in the same app? To the app you were using when you tapped a link that sent you to the current app? The home screen? Contextual back buttons that are only present when necessary are way better than Android garbage.

ok so I put down my phone for a minute and forget the exact context of the app I'm in when I pick it back up. what does that permanent, contextless back button take me back to? or, if I'm reading Twitter and tap on a video and it opens in the YouTube app, does tapping the back button take me back to Twitter, to the home screen, or something else (like back to the main screen in the YouTube app)?

ios: if there is nothing to go back to, there is no back button. this includes being at an app's main screen, since only the home button takes you back to the home screen. if you are a few screens deep in an app, the back button will provide context about what screen you'll go back to, provided the app supplies this information. the back button is always in the same place. if you tap on a link in App A that takes you to App B (or you tap a notification that pops up and it brings you to App B), the OS places a back button at the top of the screen in App B (in a different place than normal back buttons to prevent confusion) that takes you back to App A, and the button will be labeled "Back to App A". iOS back buttons say what they're taking you back to, don't do anything unexpected, and disappear when not needed. in Android the always-present back button does multiple things, and doesn't say which of them it's going to do. and that's on top of all the other garbage in anroid

yes, that sure is a great system that will totally not result in the vast majority of android users being a few versions behind and older device support being dropped quickly. e:f,b etc

The Management posted:that would cause a tearing effect whenever something redraws in a translated offset the iPad 3 had a slight, but noticeable display lag that was similar to the rolling shutter effect seen on digital cameras. the LCD controller or whatever couldn't update the screen fast enough. so if you scrolled in landscape orientation stuff would get a slight rolling shutter trapezoidal effect like you see when panning quickly on a GoPro. or scrolling in portrait orientation would briefly give a slight squish/stretch effect. for the anroid phone in question, its possible that rotating the device makes it fall off some optimized, direct framebuffer-to-screen drawing path, and having to go through the window compositor (so the screen contents can be rotated 180 degrees) introduces a noticeable lag. (as if anroid has an optimized drawing path ) or maybe it's too slow to handle having to invert the touch input coordinates. who cares tho because vv anroid is bad vv

Last Chance posted:I've used the iPad 3 for years and never experienced that. calling horse poo poo I own an iPad 3 as well. haven't used it in a while, but I definitely remember it having that problem. was especially noticeable when starting/stopping scrolling quickly or if you dragged your finger up & down real quick to make it abruptly change scrolling direction. browsing YOSPOS made it more noticeable because of the straight lines on a black background. edit: i just tested it, and yep, you can see it. open awful.app (or safari), and browse any thread in yospos in portrait orientation. you can easily see text etc. lagging behind the scrolling the further to the right you get, especially if you keep your finger on the screen. IIRC many people commented on this when the iPad 3 was released. it being so underpowered (even for its time) is why the iPad 4 was released only a few months later.

The Management posted:the answer is that android users get bored with consistency and reliability. they prefer to see constant churn of UI changes because it makes upgrades more exciting. they think the OS is an end in and of itself, not a means for getting things done. describes an android using coworker at my previous non-computer-toucher job almost perfectly. dude was a "computer whiz" type, and liked rediscovering where Microsoft had moved an obscure setting to after each update, etc. dude thought I was computer illiterate because I didn't know a bunch of dumbass Windows power user poo poo, and was shocked to learn that I was making stupid little iOS apps in my spare time, because "I thought you had to know a lot about computers to do that stuff." like, in his mind knowing where weird windows settings are and a bunch of other computer janitor stuff was Being A Computer Genius. glad I don't work with you anymore, brandon 🖕
