It's fine. Yeah, I agree. It's fine.

I use it all the time, and every time I use it, I just think about how much better it could be. It's not killing me, but I'm just like, it could be better.

What do you need to change? So the D-pad, essentially, up, down, left, right, and the swipey thing in the middle. I know you can disable the swipey thing in the middle, but enabling allows you to swipe through things faster, but disabling it allows you to use the ring more easily. But I feel like the ring is just not as secure to me as an actual D-pad.

I still have to think about the north, south, east, west of it because it is one continuous ring, and I still have to kind of think about not touching the touchpad, but I want to keep the touchpad enabled because I do swipe sometimes. So that's unsatisfactory. And the whole size of it, it's bigger than it was in terms of thickness, right? But it's still...

not really filling the negative space of my hand in the way that I want it to. I still feel like it's still a little bit small. There's advantages to being small. It looks elegant. It's good for people with small hands, but for my hands, it still feels a little bit small, a little bit fidgety.

And it's nothing like, you know, it talks about the TiVo remote, but just any other kind of like more normal size remote with big,

bigger beefier more distinct buttons that i can use with less mental effort it's not like i'm killing myself using remote i use the apple tv remote all the time it's basically the main remote i use for our television still feel like it could be better and it runs against everything that apple wants to do because they want it to be small and elegant or whatever and they're like here's our concession to ergonomics this is the new one and we all celebrated because it was so much better than the old one but they're still farther to go if they want to improve this thing and i wish they would

And even the TiVo peanut grill got smaller over the years. Like, it didn't stay the same size. It's a question of striking that balance. But I feel like the thickness maybe is more important than the length and width. Just sort of like... Because it's not like, it's like, how do you grip it? It's kind of like the Apple mouse.

Some people love it because it's so low profile because of the way they use the mouse. But other people don't use the mouse that way. And they find the very low profile mouse to be like against everything they want out of a mouse. So I feel like maybe the remote is the same way.

But either way, the circular D-pad with the touch thing in the middle, I feel like is such a weird compromise between the different functions. And I always find it, I find it difficult to very quickly go left, left, right, down, down. to the thing that I want.
