What’s the tiniest thing about iOS / iPadOS / macOS that really bugs you?
As much as I don’t like negative threads, there’s one thing in iOS that really irritates me, and I want to air it…
Pressing and holding the tab button in Safari to access tab groups, should have a haptic response.
Because it doesn’t, I often end up opening the tab view instead, so I have to huff a little, hit Done, then try again. I don’t know why it annoys me that it doesn’t because none of the other buttons in Safari do, but I feel like it should.
No, I have not contacted Tim Apple about this. Yes, I probably should.
You're viewing a single thread.
The command/control split is a constant source of annoyance. I really wish they would just abandon that one and get with the rest of the world.
You mean move stuff like copy and paste to CTRL?
I super disagree with that, personally. It’s so much more comfy to move your thumb slightly over to hit Option than it is to reach a pinky down to hit CTRL.
If command was just the control key moved over I wouldn’t have a problem with it, the issue is that the control key still exists and is used in a lot of applications, often inconsistently. It’s a constant frustration to me when I hit the wrong one either due to muscle memory or simply because I forgot how each specific application is set up.
The argument for separation the command and control keys isn’t entirely wrong as using the control key for gui shortcuts was always a bit of a hack, but OSX doesn’t actually have any way to enforce the separation there, so it just makes the user experience worse in 3rd party applications which weren’t written primarily for OSX, which is unfortunately the case for most applications I use.
I rebind capslock to control for much better overall comfort. nobody needs capslock and that's prime pinky real estate
