Android 16 could introduce big multitasking changes by letting you put any app in a floating bubble.

Y tho?

I've done split view on purpose like twice ever. The bubble mode and most split view things are an unwelcome accident IMO.

yeah wtf is up with Android recently? seriously, like, how did they not hear that /u/dream_weasel only uses these features twice a year, if at all? get rid of that shit if /u/dream_weasel doesn't use it. Android was made for this one specific guy and we can't even remove split screen and stop dev on the bubble feature for him. Jesus Christ Android. get your shit together. I'm so fucking done. moving to iOS.

8 up zero down yo. Maybe you're using those features, but looks like it's not exactly controversial not using them.
