Comment on Good news, everyone: Apple’s Polishing Cloth supports the iPhone 15 Pro Max
andrew@lemmy.stuart.fun 1 year agoWith the hardened glass going into phones combined with the oleophobic coatings they get, you really aren’t likely to do a bit of damage for the light rubbing you need to get oils off the screen.

This shows that you don’t actually understand how these hardened glasses actually work. They can most definitely still be scratched even if it’s micro abrasions. Plus the oleophobic coating doesn’t protect against scratched, it helps prevent fingerprints and that coating along with any others will get worn down even faster.

The oleophobic coating means the oil should come off quickly with fewer passes by your shirt. So just less chance for abrasion over the lifetime of the glass due to less rubbing.

Right but that coating can come off with an abrasive cloth. The oleophobic coating doesn’t last forever and between our hands, pockets, etc, it eventually wears down. Polishing the screen with an abrasive fabric (even if it doesn’t feel abrasive to you) only hastens that wear.
Holy shit is the ignorance palpable here.
I’ll bet you blew into your game cartridges as well and still have no idea that was the cause of the issues with games.

Bro it’s just a thread on social media. Why so angry? I’m sure you’re a smart reasonable dude but resorting to personal attacks is unwarranted.
