My brother in Christ and all his disciples, can we just go back to the quick settings from Android 11 that is accessible when holding and using the phone with one hand and has more than 4 options? Or, and I know this sounds CRAZY, give users a choice? If you are going to harp on Apple about locking their ecosystem down, then when you introduce new methods of navigation keep some way of going back to the old way.
I can even do this in the shit box that is Windows 11. I finally had to use and interact with it for the first time this week, and with the installation of two programs I was able to get the start menu, taskbar, and right click menu back to the way I want. Even installing Lineage OS on my phone can't get me back to the old quick settings tiles as far as I am aware of.
Nope. They're going to shove those graphic design skills down your throat whether you like it or not. Remember though it's not because corporations hate you, it's because they love money. I'm not sure how that translates here but I'm sure it makes somebody money somehow so it's suffering for us!
