I feel like I used to see a lot of women with super long nails struggling to use their touchscreen phones. I’m sure at least some of them have chosen slightly shorter nails to make it easier.

    The prevelance of touchscreens much rather results in people lacking skills/efficiency/speed when using a regular computer keyboard

    It’s trivial to use a touchscreen with nails of arbitrary length if you’re used to it. You can easily just use the side, where the cuticle is. If you put on acrylics you’ll have some trouble adjusting, but if you let it grow naturally you’ll adjust as they grow

    Ever gone through a Walmart checkout?

    I’ve never seen longer nails than on those cashiers, and they have to press buttons and touch screens all the damn time.

      Wow, you simply stated your own experience, and you get almost as many downvotes as upvotes.

      Lemmy is quickly becoming as toxic as reddit.

        Men don’t like seeing women on their internet platforms, especially if they’re not taking negatively about female traits, like having long nails.
