minus-squareAllero@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up0·22 days ago I want my electronics to have buttons. Not screens. Could you elaborate? Do you miss tackle controls so much you’d rather have that vs screen space, or you genuinely don’t want a bigger screen?
minus-squareSpaceDuck@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up0·21 days agoCooking plates come with (janky) touch panels instead of physical buttons, my laundry machine too. Also actual feel of good buttons on for example amplifiers etc actually is a nice feel. Also buttons are replaceable if broken. Generally if no screen is needed (fridge) it can just go. Also a screen should be if it’s there dumb. Eg a TV should not come with an OS that will serve me shitty apps and advertisements.
