you niggers may try to say that kde is somehow more functional because it has million settings you have to go through.

but you can't say it looks bad. In fact it looks amazing.

and to have an abundance of settings is also a bad design pattern.

Because you are not just searching for programs you have in your computer.
You are also searching for settings and files and even looking for software in the "store"
Once you became used to it, you really can't go back.
Want to open the display settings because you plugged in a new monitor? Just type 'display', and the option to jump straight to that setting is there.

As I said I am a linux fag and I miss that menu like you would not believe. I am writing an extension for it right now..

You see first of all that menu has a lot of power users hidden functionality. You can for example set custom shortcut on any option in that menu.
Most importantly there is a search input in help menu field where you can find any option by name.

You would not believe how comfy it is to use.

Maybe I haven't dug deep enough, but no. One of the WWDC talks said you can just add .glassEffect() at the end of some widget in swiftui. Whenever you do that, regardless of the dimensions of that widget, by default it tries to make the glassiness into a circle or pill. I've only fucked around with it for, like, five minutes though, so maybe I just need to look into it more.

I think the top/system bar looks fine, but they really shouldn't make the dock all "glass."

They're trying to do the camera "bar" thing (forgetting the proper term) that phones got when they moved the entire screen up to the camera bezel, and it could work if they did proper themeing.

Though IIRC Apple *DOES* have one where the dock is "traditional" colors like previous OS X+'s. So...

This anon is correct >>105604825. Icons are meant to be visually distinct. That's the whole point of their existence. When you monochromatically display them, you gain aesthetic uniformity on the whole desktop, but they lose their main functionality and become obstacles to the user. You spend significantly more mental energy seeking the application you need because its visual cues are gone. This is a mistake.

NPCs don't work the way real humans do. A real human would look at that and see how retarded it looks, an NPC does not see anything, their image processing front end converts images into a series of abstract features. They basically see the way an AI does. Subtle styling details are completely thrown away by their vision system. Its why so many people are comparing Liquid Ass to Aero, its because these people can't actually see, their image processing front end is just returning the abstract feature "transparent".

Everyone here likes to blame Steve Jobs for ruining everything, but in reality he was the only guy in the entire industry pushing for aesthetics in the service of functionality. If it wasn't for the aesthetic design by the original Macintosh team in 1984 and the rest of the industry copying them, computers would never have become as functional as they did. Since he died, we've seen nothing but pure non-stop regression.

I can't wait for Tim Cook to leave, he's fine, he didn't sink the company or anything but he just makes it seems like Apple has been running on autopilot for the past decade or so. This Liquid Glass stuff can look kind of goofy, but it's cool to see Apple try some weird shit again. I'm all for it, I'm so sick of current design-trends in software, as I'm sure most of us are. That combined with it looking like they're trying to take the iPad more seriously, finally giving it was appears to be real multi-tasking, has me excited to own some Apple shit again. If they keep shit up like this, and really take a true stab at gaming on Mac like Valve did with gaming on Linux, they could make some big moves and really shake stuff up.

Same, icon design used to be art, and could be fun too. Now it's just "here's your rectangle with some logo on it, we may throw an extra color on it if we're feeling a bit quirky.". This liquid glass stuff is cool and all, but we need design sensibilities from skeuomorphic icons too. They used to have design goals like "relate this to something in the real world, so people have an idea of what this app is used for". That's totally gone now, and I think that's a mistake. Sorting through 100's of apps or anything with an icon with the same color and shape makes it way too hard to find what you're looking for. I know it looks cool, I even do it with custom icons from time to time, but it shouldn't be the default.
