Remember the old menu key of Android 2.3 ? Now it's finally gone

Starting from Android 4.0, if you installed an app that targeted Android version 2.3 and below, you'd see a menu key on the navigation bar:

This is how it worked for a very long time, for backward compatibility, and nowadays it's extremely rare to find such apps.

Unpopular opinion: 3-button navigation is just flat out easier to use than gestures and is also quintessential Android

About a week ago I decided to switch back to 3-button navigation just to see how much different it was now compared to the gesture navigation that I've gotten used to on my Pixel 3.

To my surprise, I found that it was just way easier to use. Going Home was faster, swiping the slideout menus were easier and less error prone, double tap to flip apps was super quick, accessing the Assistant made more sense. It just all worked.

I legit like my Pixel 4 XL more than my iPhone 11 Pro Max and I'm colored surprise.

This may not be a big deal for most of you, but for someone who has always used apple and has a Note 10 as well, I picked the phone up after all the negativity and I have to say, I REALLY enjoy the experience of this phone so much that I'm considering selling my iPhone. Ive came to the conclusion that the features that may be so called better on a note or iphone, I don't really use. Also, the glass on this thing is super smooth and it makes it a pleasure to type on.
