Of course you're missing out one option - perhaps they actually aren't actually that much slower, but you're just used to newer stuff being much faster. The definition of slow changes.
- digitaLandscape 8y agoThis is clearly not the case: the C64 could respond to input faster than the a few-year-old iPhone.
- badpun 8y agoSadly, the C64 is also quicker than Apple's iCloud website. Frequently, when I type a new note or a reminder, the lag between my pressing a key and character appearing on the screen is in several seconds. This is on a 4-core machine with 16 GB of RAM that's not doing anything else.
- Someone1234 8y agoIt really does perplex me that the iCloud website is as bad as it is. I'd almost think it was abandoned-ware except that Apple continues to update it. Their whole cloud offering (iTunes store, Apple Music, iCloud) needs a MASSIVE overhaul. Everything should be available via the web and on a modern accessible website. I'd go as far as to say that they need a new point-person in charge of their Cloud Services because whoever is doing it now is completely out of touch. iTunes in particular is embarrassing, and I personally buy less stuff because I don't want to run it (instead use Vudu, Amazon Digital, etc).
- rbrcurtis 8y agoiirc, icloud was written in sproutcore. version 2 of sproutcoure became ember which is now in version 3. there was no upgrade path from sproutcore 1 to ember, so likely its a case of needing a rewrite and that not being prioritized.
- rosege 8y agoAre you sure you aren't remembering incorrectly? I had a friend who loved to show how he could type faster than it could process
- vbezhenar 8y agoI have iPhone 4S with iOS 6 and iPhone 8 with iOS 11. iPhone 4S is not slower.
