Totally. If you don’t know the vi basics and you’re stuck in some state of disrepair or emergency, you’re going to have a much worse time getting things sorted :)
I much prefer gui editor with all the frills for complex coding. But the guy I’m working with right now, it’s vim all the way for him and honestly he’s about as fast as I am at most things.
Yeah, imagine that. CEO makes unpopular decision, alienates loads of users, and triggers mass migration. Couldn’t happen. /s
Almost right. Printers and scanners were not built by people. They are an independent life form that just happens to emulate office equipment for their own benefit. They have enabled parasitic entities such as Canon and HP to thrive alongside them, but since there is no ‘design’ involved, they will never really develop the same kind of interfaces we expect from modern UX labs.
It’s also the reason any sane person keeps a loaded gun nearby whenever interacting with them, just in case they make any unusual noises.
Just to add a couple of things to your great list that I’m missing by from Apollo:
- Hide posts I’ve read (eg posts I’ve scrolled past are marked as ‘read’ and then hidden on next refresh. Ideally with an option to view / search those ‘read’ posts
- Option to open the built-in. Bowser view in Reader mode—this solves much of the trash mobile sites with endless cookie pop ups and ads
Apollo had swipe left for subscriptions. Currently the star is top left but the panel opens on the right which feels a bit ‘wrong’ considering where the button to open it is.
Maybe it could be switched to the left, for those of us with muscle memory and a deep sense of loss :)
