It's a damn shame other manufacturers don't follow this model.. In fact all makers of all items don't follow this model. It's an old one... If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it.

Why are people in the tech industry so scared of taking a step backwards?

I've been building web based software for 15 years and I've always only picked up on new "fad's" IF they actually improved what I was building. It has worked well for some customers but sadly, these days, everyone wants the latests thing even if it doesn't really fit the model or make the application better... There are so many simple tricks one can use to make a web interface easy to use, cross platform and fast (limiting the actual code the browser has to load and render, avoiding JS, jQuery and the like like the plague and such) but everyone want to use Laravel or Angular or jQuery when they don't really need to! The world is making things hard for it's self...

Back button.. Something I never though I'd see in a mail client!

None of it is real, people agree because it only takes a click, people disagree because they like stirring. They do very little to actually make a difference.. It's the hate mobs that are the problems!

... They ask every tine I start steam... Is this your email address, please confirm, so I do then then next time I start it... Is this your mail address! For security :)
