Another feedback I would have is
Fly through your work.
Yeah I love that, flying is zen and green.
The browser that makes you faster and better at working on the web.
Faster and better at working? What experience is that exactly? A burnout experience?
All I'm saying is, you are making an OS, learn from the best. Steve Jobs knew that computer programs are crap by default (he says "developing software is hard" - think twice about that one) and so he was always selling the user experience. What is my experience in front of your program?

Thanks for the feedback! Simplicity is key, and we hope you feel faster using SigmaOS without adding unnecessary complexity.
I think now that was really spot on and that it ultimately goes even further. Look at your desktop computer screen and tell me: how much information is there? A freaking lot. Even a window contains so much information (coords, sizes, 3 buttons, a scroll bar), that's a lot compared to what you find on mobile. The iphone experience is actually pretty different from the desktop experience in that sense, there is an order of magnitude less information on the screen of an iphone.
I'm aging. Now whenever I come in front of a desktop computer screen, my heart starts beating, I'm stressed. Thats just too much for me. Whereas the opposite is true with my smartphone, there is something zen about the experience of it all.
