WARNING: Rant, so cursing is involved.

So Android 10 has some good improvements, but some big missteps as
well. This is about their mistakes they've made.

Album art is blurred on the lock screen. My daily driver phone is
running Android 9. It's awesome. The album art for Google Play Music
fills up the screen and you have the OPTION to turn it off completely
if you want. The album art is clear, as you'd expect. My previous
phone, a Pixel 1 which I still use for backup, has Android 10 on it,
and man, I'm just so mad that they chose to blur the damn artwork.
It's not just Google Play Music. It's other apps. Guess where this
shit started? iOS. Fuck you copying shitty "features" of Apple. There
is no way to turn the blur off without a custom Android ROM. I've
never successfully rooted a device and after one failed attempt I
decided that disabling apps was just as good as outright removing the
bloat.

I hate developers who don't give you OPTIONS. Android devs have fucked
up, probably on the orders of their dumbass business major bosses.
It's possible they also just suck ass at designing shit, because lots
of "vogue" design choices are... well, vogue. Yes, all shitty trends
in Android can be traced back to Apple. Well, not all, but a lot. I'm
really getting pissed about those fuckers trying to create a damn
homogeneous phone ecosystem slowly but surely. If I wanted a fucking
iPhone, I'd buy a fucking iPhone. Stop mirroring those Apple clowns at
the system level, you fuckers.

No soft menu button anymore on the system navigation. Lots of
smartphones no longer have physical buttons. I'm okay with that, as
long as you don't take buttons away for no fucking reason. But Android
10 removed my menu button, something I whined about earlier and
fubared Overbite on Android, which led to Kaiser pushing out an
update. I guess the update was a good thing, but my abandonware
launcher, found in my SDF gopherhole under bin, has all its options
attached to the system settings (three-dot) menu, which appears as
needed in Android <10, but is completely removed in 10.

OPTIONS = CHOICE. CHOICE = FREEDOM. There is such a thing as too many
choices, but the much more prevalent and critical issue is having too
few choices/no choice at all. I shouldn't have to root/jailbreak a
phone just to have options.
