Bros gaslighting us into thinking we're misusing gaslighting. Consider my gas lit

Look up what it means & where it comes from. If you have a valid argument as to how I'm incorrect and this is gaslighting, I'm all ears.

You're seriously gaslighting me into how many ears you have?

Dude I seriously am. I am all ears. My eyes are eyes. My nose is ears. I can't even talk because it's just ears

How do you know the download isn't stuck if there is no progress bar?

by Many_Bee 2 hours ago

They just put a download ongoing text on the screen

That still doesn't really solve the problem. If a download goes from 91% to 93% at least i know its moving.

Nah, even if the progress bar is totally a lie, I'd rather it be there to a least reassure me that progress is being made at all, or I'd go crazy

You're not against progress bars, you're against inaccurate progress bars that don't operate the way they're supposed to.

Most of them are inaccurate though

I like seeing a loading indicator at any point where you could have to wait because it makes troubleshooting easier. i hate how all software and websites etc are form over function now
