Why doesn’t Lemmy have a back button?
It’s really confusing me why Lemmy doesn’t have a back button when you are browsing via the web. Is this something that just got missed or is it meant to be like that?

Because your browser has one. Why would you need a second?
Not everyone is used to pressing back and forwards on there browser and it will often be hidden if you use the page as web-app through certain devices.
My grandmother is over 100. She knows how to use a browser back button.
first thing i do on a new browser install is rearrange the toolbar a bit.
What’s the benefit of splitting your address and search bars?
That’s the most cursed toolbar I’ve seen and I love it! Kinda like vertical tabs were at first sight I guess
And there’s also always backspace/alt+left
Not everyone knows shortcuts, great for those that are wanting to be more quick / know the shortcuts but for a general user experience it could be frustrating especially when you are browsing in a webapp on an iphone or something.
iPhone you just swipe right to navigate to the previous web page.
Ahhh… iPhone. That’s the issue. Android has a back button but for some reason iPhones have always preferred gestures and “the one button”.
I don’t mean to be tech elitist but browsers and other phones have built in ways to easily manage navigation. I’d rather that sites didn’t adopt extraneous UI elements to make up for device shortcomings.
