What’s a subtle Apple design or UI decision that drives you nuts, and what were they thinking?

One of my very few successes was getting Karabiner Desktop to customize my new ergonomic mouse, so now button 5 goes back in Safari and button 4 goes forward. But only as long as Karabiner is running, so it launches on login now.

And let’s not forget the remote app on the iPhone, which had no Next or Back buttons whatsoever. They finally added it in iOS 18, however you have to do it in accessibility, and if you turn it on, then you can’t swipe anymore. Because fuck you.
