> Many apps are missing many keyboard shortcuts that you may be used to
This is true. To see the ones that are available, hold down the command ⌘ key to get a scrollable list of all of the shortcuts for the app you’re currently using, and use Fn-m or globe key-m to see a list of the system shortcuts.

Seconded. It was great to follow along in your post here as you unpacked what was happening. Maybe a spoiler bar under the article like “Into the weeds: A deeper dive for the curious”
I skimmed the article but couldn’t bring myself to sit through that style of writing so I was pleased to find a discussion here.
Thanks, it does. For single item. This honestly makes it worse, because it clearly signals intent behind the change. Apple software continues to be like that one friend who insists on keeping his apartment orderly and minimalist and achieves it by stuffing all mess under bed and in cupboards. Cannot find or use anything, but looks good on instagram.
Two iPads, an iPod Touch and an iPhone of mine have been made unusable by OS updates. If Apple had made the cutoff just one OS version sooner, then they would still feel snappy to use. They’re not actually bricked, but completely unusable and essentially e-waste.
Agreed, pulling the phone out of a pocket with my thumb on the home button and having it unlocked and ready to use by the time I look at it is is ideal.
Much better than having to pull it out, hold in in a way that it can see my face, then swipe up, then wait for the stupid animation at the top of the screen to finish and the actual unlock to occur and then finally be able to use the device.
