  1. Proponents of #LiquidGlass might do well to remember that the people behind #FlatDesign weren't proven right by time.

    Objections weren't just the shock of the new, or unfamiliarity.

    Flat Design was objectively worse on any reasonable measure than the previous #Skeuomorphic paradigm, and the only way it was "saved" was by re-introducing skeuomorphs to it.

    Liquid Glass is the same; its basic theories, the reasons in "favour" of it are nonsense, and time will not change that.

  5. I really dislike the flat design that has come to overpower everything since 2013. I prefer the old iphone Skeuomorphism, pixel art icons from the '90s (e.g. #BeOS), and the new #neuomorphism (but with more contrast than shown in the pic). But flat design, no, thank you.

    "PyCharm has a brand-new UI!"

    Totally flat, colourless design virtually barren of controls, i.e. absolutely useless in an advanced tool for technical work. FFS.

    "But there's a plugin that restores the old UI!"

    Well, thank fsck for that.

    <enable old UI>

    Ah...

    (Seriously, UI designers: tools for engineers shouldn't try to look like phone apps or whatever else you're modelling your "no menus and almost no buttons and hey isn't negative space great in everything" designs on.)

  9. For shits and giggles I just tried switching the application style in #Linux to the old win9x style. But man, look at those *useful signifiers*! Buttons that are OBVIOUS. Windows that have clear EDGES. Scrollbars that are big enough to click, always visible and PROVIDE INFORMATION, helping giving me a ->mental model<- of the content. What the hell has happened to UI design in the past decade? Minimalism destroys #usability.
