Saar one color best saar. Liquid Glass top UI saar. Easy to mod.

UX designers copy each other. The company is irrelevant. Every UX designer draws from the same shared design trends which cross organization bounds.

probably because they are mostly women or extremely feminized men
and all women do is copy each other relentlessly
that's why they are all bogged with fake asses and tattoos now

I honestly think the new tahoe UI looks better than the old sequoia one, still, the beta is utter garbage with bugs left and right, literally yesterday the dock bugged out and didn't properly render the dark background.

You are supposed to talk to the AI assistant nowaday. It's part of your patriotic duties.
The enshittyfying of the UI will continue until EVERYONE will have checked that damn "I accept AI into my heart, and give away my privacy" checkbox.

With how widespread digital adoption has become, the average UX user likely can't even comprehend that an interface could be better (or at least better looking) than what we have now.

Jobs died and a new Jobs hasn't replaced him. Not just at Apple, but in general. The most talked about person in tech right now is the dude that owns ChatGPT, and what does he do, just continuously shovel more shit into his LLM's learnset?

Gnome runs on Linux which is a much better OS, specially because you can remove it and replace with a WM or KDE.

Yes. Only thing missing was a dark mode. If they made a quicktime theme for the whole OS, it would have been basically perfect.

Middle is best - icons shaped similarly for ease on the eyes, but distinct enough to differentiate easily.

There are some GTK themes today that are really close, and very nice. KDE doesn't have any, unfortunately, which is sad because it has the best implementation of global menu of all DEs.

I use it. There just isn't any that recreates that look as faithfully as the picture I posted. KVAqua comes close, but some of the spacing is off, and the style is just not quite. I use KVAquaDark, and then it's gtk that doesn't have a suitable dark theme for it.

Also, I should add
>"KDE doesn't have any"
Any consistent global themes. You can see the window decoration doesn't match the Kvantum theme. Eventually, I will make one. Maybe.
