🎨🧠 Gruber's latest masterpiece: a riveting novella about Alan Dye's hair color, artfully disguised as an insightful analysis of corporate musical chairs. Spoiler alert: Apple isn't shedding a tear, and Gruber's #sarcasm levels are off the charts. 🍏👋

macOS Tahoe has almost completely ruined the typography palette, which is sad because it was SO IMPROVED in Sequoia, as @nickheer noted last year: https://c.im/@nickheer/112111864231807304

There’s a *lot* of talk about how great it is that Alan Dye has left Apple. I agree: UI design has been a disaster under Dye. Liquid Glass on the Mac in particular is a train wreck.

But as I’ve said before, OS X Lion was when the Mac UI began to go downhill. Reduced contrast, full screen mode on maximise, the death of Save As in favour of the useless Duplicate … the UI decay began long ago.

As with macOS Tahoe, there were lots of great technical improvements. But for users, especially novice users, it was a backward step followed by further backward steps.

Let’s hope that starts to reverse, and quickly.

@siracusa wrt #AlanDye leaving Apple. Do you think there is any sort of “Interview Loop” for that level of job. Or just negotiating on salary and what not and Zuck saying make it happen.

Apple’s interface chief Alan Dye will join Meta as design head amid leadership changes https://english.mathrubhumi.com/technology/meta-appoints-apples-liquid-glass-ui-designer-alan-dye-as-its-new-chief-design-officer-p5knjjdx?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Meta #Apple #AlanDye #ChiefDesignOfficer #AI

It's all change at Apple as design chief Alan Dye leaves the company for Meta. For his blog, artist and designer @louie writes about how this, and the departure of iPhone designer Jony Ive in 2019, might not be a bad thing. Why? Under their tenure, Mantia argues, "Apple shifted away from making products 'for the rest of us' and started making products that appealed specifically to rich people."

Oha! #AlanDye verlässt Apple und stattdessen übernimmt Lemay (nie gehört aber er soll echter, gelernter UI/UX Designer sein und im Kollegium gut ankommen)
Ich glaube zwar nicht, dass das Glas nächstes Jahr wieder ausgebaut wird … habe jetzt aber Hoffnung, dass jemand die UI VERSTEHT und auf dem Mac mal wieder die Scheiße aufräumt die da entstanden ist 🫣
