Physical controls were a primary reason I went with a 2023 Mazda 3. I didn't want a touch screen as the primary input device. The rotary dials for menus and volume have been great. I find the screen is just in a better position too; it doesn't need to be within reach so it just blends into the dash better and is at an easier angle to see.

Before I updated my car I used the headphone jack regularly for playing music there. Otherwise it was relegated to a couple situations a year like air travel.
Now that I've got a newer vehicle I just have all my music on USB there.
Cause crypto is shit.
Thanks, that was interesting. Pretty different experience when there's very little contention for space.
Less engagement is exactly what I would want. Show me my new chronological content and then I'll get the hell out of there.
Not having a touch screen was a pretty sizeable component of my decision making process when I bought my 3.

That happens to me regularly. Plus it will have different read statuses in the channel list, pins, and notifications.
