Who would’ve thought? This isn’t going to fly with the EU.

Article 5.3 of the Digital Markets Act (DMA): “The gatekeeper shall not prevent business users from offering the same products or services to end users through third-party online intermediation services or through their own direct online sales channel at prices or conditions that are different from those offered through the online intermediation services of the gatekeeper.”

      I hate gesture controls. Even more fiddly and imprecise than fake buttons. Pinch zoom, scroll, and change page are more than enough.

        How come it’s more fiddly? It works soooo smooth and reliable. And that coming from a dude who can’t type one error-free word on the phone.

          My general problem with touchscreen controls is chance of error and lack of feedback. I want buttons. I don’t want to accidentally do a thing because I idly swiped at the screen while looking away briefly.

        lol the gesture controls on modern smartphones are overwhelmingly less fiddly (read: not at all) than your horrible excuses for defending an outdated piece of technology like ‘buttons’ when much better options exist.
