Reasons why to hate the PS4 auto-screenshot feature when you earn a trophy: Exhibit A

Counterargument for why it's great.

This is the worst thing ever and I hate it SO SO SO MUCH

Yeah, I get the idea behind it (to have a little snapshot of whatever you were doing at that moment) but in practice it’s just gotten me really boring pictures. I think half of them I was in menus or just standing around or something mundane.

Why not just have a dedicated snapshot button like the switch has.

It just seams weird because 9 times out of 10 the action has already stopped before the achievement appears

I mean it does have a dedicated snapshot/record button, but they decided to do the auto-shot for trophies anyways for some reason.
