I wish I read this comment before wasting my two minutes as well…

Why would an optional feature be a deal breaker?

It also seems like an issue that could be easily solved by whitelisting.

Google TV is the easiest to get rid of ads on. I have a Sony and a Hisense both no ads.

Look up and use the Projectivy Launcher.

You’ll also want to sideload an app that forces the default launcher to Projectivy (can’t recall the name) because they don’t allow changing it through the stock OS. Projectivy tries to use accessibility settings to take over on its own, but it breaks some other features so I don’t use them.

It’s got a compact view that is pretty much why I’d be using if I started. I think it makes sense to default to the “cozy” view, even if that is the most bass ackwards naming I’ve seen. The reason being is that “most” people prefer that view and are the same people that wouldn’t bother looking for a setting to change, they’d just nope on out because they got overwhelmed.

Default “cozy” in desktop mode

“compact” in desktop mode

I think compact looks decent in mobile view as well, but since the parent post is about desktop UI that’s what I’m showing.

Out here in the you guys zone making yall happen. 10 years and you guys will be nearly gone cause people get tired of having to ubsubltly tack on “and gals” or “gals and nonbinary pals”.

I’m pretty sure “apple mail” refers to the Mail app on iPhones and Macs, not the email address. There’s probably tons of people using Gmail addresses with the Apple Mail app.

Fix the issue with read posts. Can’t stand having to see the same top posts over and over again.

I bet you’ll get used to it with a few days of using it. But as long as the swipe colors are orange/blue it’s going to trip you up.

Reading stuff like this is so crazy. They just go “hey 150k is a nice big number and should be plenty of heads, let’s just just take way the livelihoods of tens of thousands of actual people to make a number look nicer”

Thank you that was it!
