Also they recently removed the ability to save images directly from Google Image Search in Chrome on Android. In what world does removing functionality make life better for anyone?

This appears to be an irritating trend. Look at the gedit redesign on GNOME3 and see how the removal of all buttons and features is heralded as a GOOD thing?!?!?!

I understand the "let's not confuse the user" approach but simplifying everything down to have zero features reduces the computer to a useless tool, as all the features have gone. It's like a Swiss army knife where they decided that all the blades and options were too fiddly and confusing so they just give you a spork instead.
