Doesn't solve the small hands ergonomics aspect, but yeah, bigger pockets would be nice. I'll take whichever quality of life improvements I can get, though.
I'm a woman with small hands and unfortunately smaller pockets. I don't need a thinner phone - I need a shorter, narrower phone that's comfortable to hold and that won't peek out halfway from my jeans.
So for me, the flip phone format makes a lot of sense, because companies seem intent on offering me Large or XXL Max Extra only in terms of candybar phones.
That said, I don't think it should be the mainstream, never mind the silly hyperbole that "every smartphone should be a flip phone". We just generally need more size/format variety in the market.
I checked in on the trash fire yesterday, and the smaller hobby-oriented subs I'm on were heavily targeted, possibly to keep up the illusion of engagement during the blackout. I didn't dive into what's happening on the comments side, but sorting by New was a trip. But outside of the blackout, yeah, usually I steer clear of the big communities and life isn't too full of bots.
La CAQ dit qu'il faut "un coup de barre", mais met des cibles d'achalandage médiocres (2.5% par an)... et ils ont pas renouvelé leurs cibles (pas atteintes) d'augmentation des services, qui serait une des bonnes façons d'augmenter l'achalandage.
C'est moi ou ça sent le "les employeurs vont ramener leurs employés en présentiel temps complet progressivement, ça va se régler tout seul" comme stratégie? J'suis peut-être cynique...
