You're being purposely obtuse - the point wasn't that it's a mystery, but that many people have deeply ingrained visual habits focusing on text, and you don't get to just assume everyone reacts to visual interfaces the same way you do. Not to mention that the previously discoverable and self explanatory text which has always just been light grey when not applicable now disappears depending on context in addition to being in a new place and purely represented by a (new, stylized, low contrast) icon.
Like, its OK that you like it, but you're being really presumptuous about how trivial and obvious it should be, especially since everyone in this thread probably has a different DPI monitor and interface scale.
TL;DR, don't fucking tell me I didn't look - maybe I'm some kind of moron, but I looked. With my eyes. For text.
I did not see it, and I think it's bad interface design. And I have now run out of shits to give about this conversation.
- vel0city 3y ago> so I didn't continue to investigate Right here buddy. You did one quick scan only for the word Paste, assumed it didn't do it because you didn't immediately see see the word, so you instead worked on trying to force the old menu. You said it yourself. You didn't bother actually looking at the new menu outside of seeing if the word "Paste" was there. You didn't think "huh this looks a little different, maybe I should see what those new icons are about...". Nah. Just ignore those, they're new so therefore they're bad and should be ignored. You didn't actually look. Instead of bothering half a second to give the new thing a chance you actively moved to try and force bring back the old thing. And I'm being obtuse? You're claiming you have to constantly hover over scissors to understand cut and a trash can to understand delete. You're the one proudly proclaiming of features not existing when they do exist.
