It's really not. You're looking at it the wrong way, and haven't come across any of the use cases it solves. If you have limited space and you need to both interact with and see fractional ranges, knobs are the way to go. It&

It's not all about the interaction, but also the visual representation which can be much finer and granular in small spaces with a knob. I can make a 16x16px knob where you can see almost the entire 320° of the range. It's also ea

Talking about "software quality collapse", this blog post with 1 image ships 9mb of JS, 1mb of CSS spread over 14 files, makes 177 requests, takes 4 seconds to load on an M1 MBP, and completely screws up the scrollbar.

React is a good POC and a was a necessary step, but it's far from well designed. The performance is atrocious unless you want to spend most of your time ejecting from the framework to do any realtime work, and building meta-tooling tha

What I don't understand is how there are now probably a dozen features by Apple that aren't available in the EU, allegedly due to regulations, however every other vendor has no issues providing the same or similar features.
