If you want to please proof read, my written english is horrible.
I'm sorry, but I don't consider the content of the article important enough for me to spend time proofreading it. > my written english is horrible. I commend you for writing anyway. The best way to improve your writing is to write more. Read a lot, and write as often as you can. I can't even speak a second language, let alone write in one, so I respect your effort. Keep at it!
It's proof read and edited now, https://medium.com/trends-predictions/c22abbd34df0 So feel free to dismantle the written words in any way that pleases you.
I'll keep trying and failing and eventually succeed.
Sorry to hear that you did consider the article important. I think it's of utter importance that we address this matter so that Apple don't screw with our lives.
Sincerely

#13Horrendously-written and incoherent rant. I didn't get anything out of that other than the fact that the author, for reasons unknown, really doesn't like iOS 7.
Looks like you are right on it, the whole point with the article is the fact that I don't like iOS7. That's the entire build up.
Tim stated quoting "Customer Sat rating is our number 1 priority". Well I'm a huge customer and my sat rating went from #mindblown to #deadirritated
So the fact that you don't get the article is strange to me, because you expressed the very essence of it in your comment above.

I wonder why? Did you disagree on the content or was there anything else you felt needed a change, feedback is more than welcome. Also transparency. So tell me how you feel about the issue.
Re: Simplicity My Ass.
#15The point being ?
that iOS7 is not simplicity as Tim and Apple stakes, and that I don't like iOS7, wich make Apples number 1 priority ( customer sat rating ) to plunge infinite.

I think the piece is bad because it has not structure. Ie it's a train of thought that is difficult to follow. It's as if you wrote down shorthand notes during the presentation and then shuffled them around and dumped them in a document instead of actually writing a piece.
Instead i'd write it as: Thesis / Points that support it / Conclusion. Like, you know - the way writing is taught in school.

Because nearly every-time I click a medium link it's as if content is being written for the sake of writing something, rather than because there's a coherent well thought through point to get across. Many of the posts including this one are like an extended tweet - but at least a tweet would be to the point. It's just unnecessary words.
In the case of your article I feel the point you're making (which I didn't find clearly structured) could have been done so as a comment to another post - I have no idea why it merited a post of its own.
Re: Simplicity My Ass.
#18Good article. I totally agree.

I guess I meant important to me. If the article was about starving children or the atrocities in Syria, I might have made an effort to help. But I have a wife and children to feed, and so I can't justify spending time on someone else's article about such a relatively unimportant thing as the design choices made by the worlds wealthiest company.
I hope I don't come across as too harsh. Have a good day, linusekenstam.
