am I the only one who really doesn't get the point of glass screen protectors? that's just another layer that can shatter

@noiob i have one on my switch to make it less likely to get scratched

for something that already has a glass screen, the extra layer may actually help against cracking/shattering

@bonzoesc I have a plastic one that's got an oleophobic coating
works fine

@noiob it's like the crumplezone of a car, it shatters so the screen is less likely to. a maleable plastic screen protector will not prevent a screen from shattering

@kyra hm, I guess
I just go for cases with raised edges, haven't had a screen shatter yet
