jfc whatever chrome update I just got ruined the bookmark system, it was fine before

now its unusable

the new bookmarks ui was in the beta channel for a while; i kept expecting them to change it before it hit stable because it was literally unusable but nope. i'd say worksforme wontfix but i can't imagine something this user hostile actually working for anyone


classy

yeah exaggerating a bit but not by much

ff: bookmarks menu item to the right of address/search -> there they are
chrome: hamburger -> bookmarks -> "other bookmarks" (??) -> there they are

in order to open a bookmark in under 4 clicks you have to install a lovely extension that looks bad and usually doesnt work properly

i mean well never but softbank mightve injected the cash to make it happen

wouldnt have mattered since sprint has how many loving networks now? they shuttered the iden network but they still have their cdma and like tri-band lte thing. is the wimax network still up? sure why the gently caress not pile on a gsm/edge network an hspa+ network and a lte in aws and some markets pcs that wont be a clusterfuck boondoggle or anything

really the fcc did them a favor by not saddling them with another five technologies theyd have to shutter and transition to their godawful patchwork of poo poo they call a telecom

what the gently caress is this poo poo?

gigantic colored tiles that contain the URL text?

some sites randomly have branded overlay icons?

a Share button that's permanently disabled?

a search interface that doesn't actually search your bookmarks?

an Auto folders tab/whatever that does literally nothing?

right clicking on any UI element gives you the standard web page menu?

the JavaScript running the UI is checking if your browser is IE or Safari?

how did this ship?

there's a chrome://flags to turn this trash off, but I'm just going to continue with my 100% successful strategy of never using chrome
