natural scrolling superiority. it just makes much more sense on touch devices.

Linguica posted:wrong. a scroll wheel is not like moving a mouse or touching a pane of glass. it is a literal wheel, one of the oldest human inventions and one we are all intimately familiar with. much like moving the mouse pointer around is as if you were moving the mouse itself over the viewport beneath it, imagine scrolling a wheel that is in contact with the viewport beneath it. as you scroll the wheel upwards the wheel pushes the viewport beneath it downwards, making your relative motion be to scroll up the document. owned. then why does natural scrolling feel so much better?

seriously. old school scrolling = you're scrolling in the direction of the arrows on a vertical scrollbar ui element natural scrolling = you're pushing around the content as if you're touching it. if you're using a touch device like god's own magic mouse and using inertia, this makes more sense and feels great. content moves in the same direction as your finger: naturally. pretty simple

# ¿ Nov 16, 2017 05:19 |

yes, the move to natural scrolling is actually a direct result of touch screens and other touch devices becoming very popular. i don't think it would have made as much sense in a world where good capacitive touch screens didn't exist.

didn't the management actually work at apple though? taht's different than old cremns interesting stuff about the old FB integrations. I'm glad at least one company gives a poo poo about not selling out their users data. it was probably the same deal with the Apple-developed YouTube and Maps apps. dead and gone because they didn't give enough data to Google.

im no capitalism apologist but if a company does something commendable, then I give credit where credit’s due. i would guess apple misses out on a lot of $$$ not selling off user data.
