With Oneplus gestures back was swiping up from the bottom left or right. So much better. And the screen-off-gestures with drawing the pause symbol for play/pause or < or > for jump back/forward in a podcast or song. I miss them.

I tried to enter some text on someone else's phone and it had no haptic feedback, only sound. It was almost impossible to use.

That's another thing they ruined! Oneplus had amazing gestures, but then Google enforced using their gestures only, and they're so much worse! I especially hate that back is swiping in from an edge, which is in conflict with every side drawer and cropping tool in every app ever!

Hmm, okay, it's apparently debated. However, the only way I've learned it is that initialisms are words formed from initial letters of included words, and acronyms are initialisms pronounced as words. It seems like it varies by country as well.

Are there circles in which it's NOT pronounced like that?

Someone at work insisted the MVP emoji meant Minimum Viable Product. I get that the term exists, and that we use it, but it's way more niche than Most Valuable Player, and it's certainly no emoji.

I learned about a11y like a year ago, and thought it was 1337 speak for ally until I looked it up, and only then (like 20 years after first seeing it) did I realize what i18n meant.

It's always been For The Win to me. Fuck the world seems to have been before my time.

I hear SQL way more than Sequel. Luckily, since I don't like hearing it as sequel.
