This has absolutely nothing to do with EVs. It is an issue with all new cars. That said, most of the newest EVs, at least in Europe, come again with real buttons and reasonable controls and with one pedal driving they are simpler to operate than ICE cars.
no onscreen displays of weather or social media or music playlists?
Again, this has nothing to do specifically with EVs it is a general new car thing. There are still options out there though, if you want minimal digital interfaces. The Fiat 500e for example comes in its basic configuration without a central display (you can still get the bigger battery with that setup). You can optionally use your phone as replacement, for example for navigation, or not. No weather, no social media, no music playlist. Oh, and the the car has real buttons as well.
