Arguing about if the PW3 is EOL or not, or what EOL even means IN THIS CONTEXT, is not useful.
The point surely is about what people on the the last PW3 FW should do if there is a problem – my PW3 is on 5.12.4 and has no problems – or which FW they should (if any) update to if on a much older version.
I do seriously dislike the Aa Menu, which I think was also in 5.12.3?
It's too wasteful of space:
Themes take up too space
A scroll bar rather than page numbers or arrow buttons is stupid on eInk. I've found the chapter navigation hard for many versions now.
The font menu is terrible if you add extra fonts.
The layout menu is crazy waste of space and why STILL not steps with arrows etc, like on Kobo? The minimum margin is too big. Why only 3 options of each taking up a giant portion of screen?
The "More" option and its scroll is mad:
Why a scroll bar, not pages?
Why stupid slide switch graphics for a check box you tap for on/off
Why are these not in Settings? Some were, or are they going to be "per book"? They seem to be global? Or used to be.
Generally there have been some good changes in the UI /Features since the PW3 came out, but apart from whatever mysterious issue there is with 5.12.4 generally the Amazon GUI designers have lost the plot. However that's true for Kobo, Android and Win10 also with stupid designs of control elements. Amazon now seems really poor for GUI.
