I'm not resistant to change, you're resistant to the idea that interfaces don't need to change every three years, or that portable computing devices don't need to place freedom in the hands of the user. You're simply playing devil's advocate.

OCD is a real thing and is quite debilitating for some. I suggest you read about BFRB's and similar disorders before again blaming me for a physical disorder I have limited control over. Physical therapy only does so much. But that's orthogonal to the fact that I expect a consistent interface on a philosophical level.

> Again, I feel sorry for you. I'm not responding any further but I wish you could get help instead of laying the problem at everyone else

Is this how you feel about users with tourettes, seeing/hearing/motor disabilities, etc. as well? Do you similarly mock them and blame them for their disorders?


I'm not mocking you for your disorder. Your situation is only partially a result of your OCD. The majority of it is self-imposed because you don't seem to know how to use accessibility features of an OS.
