I’d consider this fixed thanks to agentic coding. Not fixed right now, but I trust Apple to scrap all cost saving workarounds (like Electron and its ilk) and go back to native every little thing. “Mac-assed” apps as they say.

The one thing that’s still unanswered is if and how quickly they will fix all the UX and UI mistakes left from the Alan Dye / Jony Ive era. Yes, Jony Ive - and his decision to scrap all Skeuomorphism on iOS which then was adapted for MacOS.

You might be on to something. I am one of those school nights people. Having people over will kill all "me-time" for that evening - once you get them out of the house, you do the dishes and it's straight to bed, usually. Meaning I had zero time for myself, I was hosting. The idea of having no "me-time" between two work days is hell for me. It was OK in my 20s and 30s, but not now in middle age.

- "Sorry, but I'm on a low-carb diet, no carbs and especially not after 3pm"

- "Do you use gluten-free pasta? I think I have a gluten allergy."

- "Why always ethnic food like pasta? What's wrong with white people food, like Cheeseburgers?"

People have become too complicated.

Smoking actually has gone up in the recent few years with younger people, especially women. Not sure if buy the same amount in every country, but an uptick is noticeable.

And yes, this is all down to a few celebrities and influencers who are popular with that crowd showing off the habit in public. A fashion.

Interesting idea - but that doesn't change their poor choice of subjects to write about.

You sound like you fumble your way through life. You use "very touristy" businesses, which is a sign of low IQ or trashy tastes, and then you write a review on the internet instead of just moving on with your life (again, you should learn to live better), and ultimately get done again by the review being removed. I'd say you need to rethink your whole approach to being.

Well I do own Google stocks, since their IPO, but I'm not defending Google here but German culture against low-bro 400pounds American nerds.

Those law firms also have to operate within the law, doh. So if you think your review needs to stand, you should hire a law firm yourself and fight for your cause.

In Germany, we care more about facts and I'd rather have it stay that way. Americans lost their right to talk ANYTHING German a decade ago.
