It matters to know if it was seen as an issue in the first place or not. That’s the difference between moving a feature to some other random place and let people assume it disappeared, and removing a feature completely on ethical grounds.

It’s the same distance as between Dropbox and a Git + Rsync setup. The later will work the same for half a percent of the users, but the 99.5% left would be crying tears of blood. I remember Mozilla employees’ blogs about the contraptions

Aren’t both at the same level ? Amazon is horrible in many many ways. You’d think a bookstore would have a good way to show books of the same series in order, and make it easy to find any specific issue. Or help you follow random authors, a
