I dont want touchscreens everywhere, I hate subscriptions, and I hate software that forces me to connect to the internet. I want more software and hardware similar to older tech, I want chunkier laptops, I want phones with keyboards, I want software I can modify, and I do not want my OS to be an always online subscription service.
Touchscreens suck. They’re used because they’re cheap, not because it’s good for usability. They’re not accessible to people with vision problems. They absolutely suck as controls for things like earphones. They have their place, but that place is not literally everywhere!
And the “everything online” trend was old and ugly in 2000 already. It hasn’t improved with age. I’d like to be able to use my computer without having to connect to the Internet.
Agree. Physical buttons please. It’s insane that cars keep replacing their control panels with tablets, I shouldn’t need to look down at a screen to operate the radio, just give me a button I can feel for while keeping my eyes on the road.

I have a kitchen robot with buttons. All the new models from the same series have a big touch screen.
Touch screen. In a kitchen. Where things get wet and greasy. And let’s not talk about the login.
I am so damn happy I bought it before it was enshittified.
I just found out this exists because that’s the first time I’ve heard the term “kitchen robot.”
