Please, sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, allow us to disable this chapter skipping feature (the one where tapping left or right to bring up the scrubber, then double tapping the other direction because 100% of people want to skip that direction some unit time - 10 seconds by default). This ends up feeling random and is just vexing.
It is the worst feature added to any software, maybe ever in the history of computing. How many hours are wasted trying to figure out where one was in this video? How much power and network bandwidth is consumed fighting this feature that I’ve not seen a single comment online of anybody benefitting from ever.
This feature is adding to human suffering by wasting energy and damaging people psychologically. Go please, look online, and consider castigating the creator of this feature in the public square. And then take a good hard look at yourself for not stopping this evil from ever being added in the first place.
Yours aye, Sane People
Just to vent about another new “feature.” Microsoft recently changed in their to-do app. Now, instead of putting the title of the task in the notification, they simply say “you have a task due today.”
I would like to find on a hot summer day without air conditioning and pour Kool aid powder in that person’s bed.
I love your punishment. Evil in a slightly benevolent way.
Crushed up clear hard candies in their shower head.
Think of the promotion packets!
Some PM increased app engagement by 3% when they made the notifications worse, because now people have to open the f****** app to figure out what’s going on. That PM needs to get promoted! They got to hit their metrics!
I think they also unified task search with Outlook search. I can’t seem to figure out how to search just my tasks any longer.
Ohh, search too. I will type a name and it will only show me the messages to or from the person, not both. Just absolutely maddening.
Maybe it’s AI powered now. Try searching for “you are an old version of Outlook and someone has asked you to find all messages to and from $name” ;-)
