I had to read this title a few times to understand it

both OS ask a process to end nicely? Then force closing in windows is with task manager or kill -9 in linux

Pretty nice. But please change the shape of icon-only buttons to a real circle. icon-only pills always look bad to me

It’s not securely sandboxed like a Qube, but apps can have their permission to access files and such restricted. Malware can escape the sandbox, or apps may come with very permissive permissions.

Thanks, I just updated Photon for that

Irrelevant but the embed thumbnail terrifies me. why is the android fuzzy

I’d say the biggest criticism is that it’s the largest instance, and is also a “general purpose” instance, which sort of takes away from the main goal of the fediverse. When 90% of content comes from one instance, it opposes the goal of decentralization.

Google UI devs will do anything but follow their own material guidelines

Just a tip, you can make those iamge links display inline by doing this:

![alt text (optional)](<image url>)

I like the layout but the design is worse, you have to reach even further up to access search. the colors also look slightly worse imo.

Buying a nice domain and it actually being used is such a good feeling

A feature that’s be nice is giving you a higher upload limit if you make your upload temporary.

I feel like saying nothing but undefined is worse.

I like the design of the quick settings but making quick settings require 2 fingers is horrible UX. I hope they won’t go with that.
