Delayed notifications are one of the most enduring issues with Google Pixel phones, and Google seems to be aware of the issue.

    You’re the second person in this thread to try convincing me to switch.

    I use the app switcher constantly. I’m using it now to jump between my Lemmy client and YouTube. It works. It’s fast. The back navigation also interferes with productivity apps, many of which still use a drawer. I use those apps constantly as well.

    Gesture navigation will never be a proper use case for me.

        I said it was subjectively better and objectively faster. And it is.

        Not everyone will agree faster is better, and that’s fine.

          It might be faster for you. But it’s not for me.

          In other words it’s subjective. (duh)

            The default Android animation transition length is 300 milliseconds. The gesture based navigation uses this delay.

            The task switch button, for whatever reason, can interrupt this delay, making it as fast as I can tap, which is a lot faster than 300 milliseconds. In fact, this is what triggers the bug. I had to set the animation scale to 0 on my device just so it can keep up with me.

            Speed, time, and duration are not subjective measurements. I will accept that it’s more comfortable for you, however.

            When your navigation preference breaks the Android animation duration because you’re using it so quickly, get back to me.
