My personal favorite...
The Google keyboard on Android offers text recommendations and let's you tap backspace after typing a word with the swipe-style keyboard to delete it in every other app except the native Google search app interface.
Searching on Google with the Google keyboard is painful. This is all on Android 5.1.1 at least. Searches for this bug turn up lots of equally frustrated people.
- erikb 10y agoYeah the Google search in android is painful. Also in the subway with bad connectivity it's still possible to load facebook with gifs, pictures, texts etc. But a simple Google search is not possible.
- kristopolous 10y agoThere's countless times when I'm waiting for something and think "how crazy can this api possibly be?!" I imagine some convoluted thing where they're passing authorization nonces around and getting normalized data so they have to make separate requests for each object id. (Eg: /business_name/:id, /descriptions/:id, /ratings/:id ... ) and bring it together client side... This isn't a request, it's a long conversation.
- skj 10y agoThat's Facebook being clever and shuffling around posts it already had. That's not possible with a search query.
- kristopolous 10y agoReally? Does this work in airplane mode?
