The quick settings menu is one of the worst parts of android 15 visually, and it desperately needed a redesign. We’re getting resizable quick actions, so now we can fit 16 settings on one page instead of 8. You can now turn Bluetooth and WiFi on/off with just one tap again. Adding settings to quick settings is easier.

More intuitive settings menu. Boring single color white/black backgrounds are now blurred wallpaper. There’s a new option for displaying notifications. There’s notification bar icons that are less weird, and more compact battery percentage. Sliders are a little clearer now (rounded colors was a terrible idea). We can now customize icon shapes.

Can someone explain why everyone is shitting on this? I get that people here don’t like change for the sake of change, but most of these are positive, or at least neutral changes, and this fixes some gripes I’ve had with android.

From what I understand, if we defederate from them, they can’t see our posts either. See what happened when Beehaw defederated from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works .

They could still be see the content by creating another instance, or by getting it from lemmy.ca directly. I doubt they’ll do that though, especially with Lemmy. Lemmy communities look weird when seen from mastodon, and I doubt they’d look much better from threads.net.

Also I hate how they called it Threads. That’s already a word used for other things in this space. Theres a thing called the threadiverse, and it doesn’t include Facebook/meta/instagram threads?
