• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why can't we go back to small phones?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  we can’t have small phones because the os design can only be so flexible before it starts either being crap at every size or having so many edge cases that internally it’s stupid complex.

  having limited sizes means the sizes they do have can be well covered
