You work in their marketing department, don't you?

The scenario I mentioned would have the buttons simply labeled with a number/letter. 95% of the time I don't even look on the remote to use a button. Also, if you hit the wrong button, no big deal, you just the other/s.

Like I mentioned, stop giving them excuses.

Nobody will remember that. Too complicated for Grandma.

You do realize that we already know the only reason you have them on your remotes is to charge the streaming services a licensing fee for the advertisement. You couldn't care less about grandma.

Can we stop with accusing people with working for corporations and treating them as representative of that corporation just for the purpose of appealing to emotion and making the other person sound worse? It doesn't even make much sense. Lemmy is too small for corporations to spend money to astroturf.

The only thing you manage to do is make Lemmy more toxic and unappealing to spend time on.

We also have a problem with people massively overestimating the amount of hassle "normal" people are willing to go through to use technology.

Whatever you say.

I mean I do need to keep my antennae from buzzing all the time. But, whatever you say.
