    and a call for manufacturers and users alike to prioritize function over aesthetics.

    People didn’t even want “thinner” products. They were told they wanted thinner products so that businesses can sell them shit that breaks easier.

    I hate my generation so much it’s not even funny.

      they’re not even selling thin products. you can’t call your phone thin when the camera is twice as thick as the rest of the body.

      Agreed. All of marketing is so imaginary and stupid. No one is asking for this.
