This feature is essential for mobile screens, and this is not meant to dismiss your concern, but what do you need pinch-to-zoom for on desktop? Everything is already huge and readable on desktop.
- mort96 8y agomacOS doesn't only run on desktops; there are people using it all the way down to the 12" MacBook.
- deno 8y agoSure, I’ve got a 12.3″ netbook (running Linux), and I don’t see any point in a variable zoom there either. Though I suppose it is 4:3 and hidpi. Still, even at 768p you get a bespoke layout for your device, since this is literally the most common resolution still (seriously). The pinch-to-zoom on mobile is only useful for the very specific case of viewing unoptimized content (mostly desktop sites) in a comparatively smaller viewport. It’s not even useful on mobile if the website is optimized (sometimes for worse, but still). It’s a nice to have, but hardly essential. But people are saying it prevents them from switching, so I am curious why.
- mixmastamyk 8y agoI've always used Ctrl+/- as the ancients did. Does Cmd+ not work?
- deno 8y agoIt’s a different type of zoom.
