The first link I posted is for Guided Access.

I also mentioned hidden albums because that was the second thing the author requested in the blog post.

Literally both of these things already exist.

Android example already posted, but for iOS:

• Lock device to one app
• Hidden album in Photos

What’s with the editorialised title? How do these changes make it harder for new creators?

Was £1,235/mo in 2016, now a similar flat in the same block is around £2,000/mo.

Honestly, I’m surprised it’s not higher.

If it’s for iOS, is there any reason you’re not just using Notes and Reminders? Either one of them could easily handle the use cases listed, including sync between users/devices.

There’s a detailed wiki article about it here.

TLDR: it’s specific to the US and UK, has been in use for over a century, and is largely metaphorical.

I worked on a game where we added the ability for the player to react to messages from other characters, but was told we had to remove 👍 as a reaction because it’s offensive in some places.

Yeah a two-finger salute (back of hand facing them) is equivalent to giving the middle finger in the UK.

DLSS 5 looks horrendous but let’s not pretend gamers haven’t been able to reshade and mod the everloving shit out of games for decades. Saying it’s not a real game because someone decided they wanted to slap on a cel-shade filter or turn the art director’s carefully crafted dragon into Thomas the Tank Engine isn’t really a defensible position.
