Yeah, you got a downvote there. I don't see a lot of whining, I see folks coming to the general conclusion that this device has a button that is not only useless and previously non-remappable, that the philosophy of putting the button on the device was to get you locked into this Bixby feature many seem to not want, and that disabling it the proper way requires using the application, and giving data to the service that wasn't wanted to start.

I've got 'the action of complaining in a feeble or petulant way' as the definition of whining, and I wouldn't describe the criticisms here as 'feeble' - Bixby was poorly-received out of the gate, and these criticisms seem to continue a lot of the same themes.

What's whiny about 'I don't want to give my information for a function I don't want'? This makes sense to me.
