    ergonomic, don’t have to move your hands.

    I can’t even begin to understand what you mean by this. It sounds like maybe you’re an iPhone user, which has almost no native universal controls. Android has options like gestures or a digital button bar, which allow for universal navigation from the same location that physical buttons would be in.

    tactile, don’t have to watch the phone to navigate if you are familiar with what you are doing

    Those buttons are contextually dynamic. You wouldn’t be able to use them without looking at the screen anyway.

    “safer” since you can rest your hands while holding your device without worrying about accidental touch inputs that means you can have a firmer grip

    How are you firmly gripping buttons without pushing them? This makes no sense.

    It sounds like you have rose tinted glasses inspired by the inferiority of iOS, but I’m making assumptions.







  • I genuinely believe the real hurdle future generations will have to solve is this: chances are you will never be as bored as Tolkien likely spent the majority of his life. Being bored today is a choice; before the information age it was a reality. When people are desperately trying to escape boredom it makes the incentive to do crazy shit like make up your own language considerably more tangible.
