Obviously, frustrated people complains, when happy users just remains silent.
Google Play applications reviewa is broken and untrustful (either you write quality reviews since ten years or poorly reactive ones since one week, you are considered the same) and writing articles about those users feedbacks is meaningless.
The back button lost very useful function: if you held it down, it would show the history for the current tab, allowing you to skip forward or backward in history. It saved time (and data) getting to the page you wanted to be on, and was indispensable for getting past redirect pages.
Now, there's a forward button in the menu, which can only go one step forward at a time, the back button, which now only goes one step back at a time, and the browser history, which includes all tabs, not just the one you are currently on.
Also I saw people asking for tabs back, when they are still there. So conservative...
