- dmix 7y ago> No more discoverability, no more recoverability, just the barest remnants of feedback. Why? Not because this was to be a gestural interface, but because Apple simultaneously made a radical move toward visual simplicity and elegance at the expense of learnability, usability, and productivity. Bingo, this is the thing that designers always mistake with minimalism. It doesn't just mean taking everything away, it's about minimal amount of headaches and avoiding information overload. But that ranks far lower on the problem totem pole than not knowing how to do anything because it's all hidden or simply not obvious or explained.
