Dear devs, how would you like it if you came home from a hard day at work and all you want to do is relax. You unlock the door, walk inside and someone came in and rearranged your entire house while you were gone!

You can't put shoes on your shoe rack because someone thought it belonged on the basement, but you don't know that yet (that's a surprise for later). You have to hunt for it unsuccessfully until you give up. You go to grab a cup from the cabinet and a dev thought cups belonged on the dining room, not the kitchen. Frustrated, you decide to just get a bottle of water, but your fridge isn't in the kitchen either. It's in the attached garage because another dev thought it would be great just to grab water in the garage on your way inside. But you didn't park in the garage, you parked in the driveway.

Want to brush your teeth? Only if you're in the shower. What about towels? The guest room closet, because duh. BTW your bed has been removed as another dev thought it was too cumbersome. You now get a pullout sofa! Yay for streamlining! Eventually you find more than half your stuff has been moved, rearranged or thrown in the trash. And you still can't figure out how to unlock the toilet paper dispenser that some genius decided was necessary...

Please, stop forcing such drastic changes. 

*Edit*
This was intended as both a lighthearted and sarcastic post to share mine and countless other's frustration. Tone doesn't come across text very well. So, I'll also add that the app "Good Lock" and a few others inside that app have REALLY helped bring back much of a UI 6 type interface. If anyone wants their old UI 6 back, look for posts about "Good Lock" some have misspelled it as "Goodlock" (in case you can't find all the posts).

Tongue-in-cheek sarcasm to deal with frustrating and unnecessary changes. Not really complaining to complain. Maybe... I'll let you know as soon as I unlock the TP dispenser 🤨

Thanks, just lightheartedly blowing off a little steam as I've seen many negative posts and feel the pain. I have a couple posts saved which has helped a lot. The "Good Lock" app has been a lifesaver for getting back much of what was lost.

You know what I would do in this situation should it have happen to me, I would put as much as I can back in its place.

Which is exactly what I did on my phone!

That's what google is doing to me,there stealing my my photos and documents with out my permission and tagging them with google's logo.this has been going on for months, they made me think a hacker was doing it . I changed all my codes, but I put my legal documents and medical records, banking information account numbers,every time I looked at my pictures & other papers , I have documentation that shows what I'm saying. This gallery is modified. To track people's accounts and photos .first it started with google wanted me to be apart of this family project. To get people in on the team for this charade. I told google I don't need your service to store my pictures and documents in the cloud. I use my old phones for storage. Last night I was signed in, and I had to sign out and back in .and I was told to sign in later.

If you have a question, start a separate post instead of hijacking someone else's.
