Not surprising, Apple is going to make you say “I love glass” whether it works or not or if there’s pushback or not or if it makes your device worse or not.

Time to switch to a Linux phone where the UI doesn’t need to constantly be redeveloped for lifestyle + product manager promotions.

Remember when Snow Leopard came out? No new user features. It just ran faster. Greatest OS release in history. Why can't Apple just do that again with one of their OS's?

Given how many visual glitches persist on last year’s top-of-the-line phone, I’m guessing they’re far behind where they wanted to be and older phone performance got “appropriately” bumped

I’m willing to bet they moved LG up a year to help fill

Oh man, that would be well received for sure. A release just about performance and bug fixes. Pure gold.

This is generally seen as mythologizing, as Snow Leopard had mountains of bugs at launch.

Everybody just fell in love with 10.6.8.

Linux would be the poster child of fractious UI fights and different ways of doing things and changing things just because.
