Comment on Why is it called linux phone?
BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 13 hours agoiOS just got a fairly major overhaul to its UI too. Liquid Glass, they’re calling it. Screenshots don’t really look great but using it since yesterday, I actually prefer it. Feels a little retro-futuristic. Buttons have clearly defined edges again, everything is now transparent, and it has the same sort of distortion you’d get with those glass blocks that used to be popular in swimming pools and such (at least around here, not sure if that was universal). Probably my favourite look of iOS actually. That might be a super unpopular opinion, I’m not sure. I haven’t kept up on community opinions of iOS in a long time.

Similarly, I fell out of the android/pixel communities when I left reddit. I don’t know what’s popular, either. I’d guess Lemmy generally agrees with me, but we’re not the general population. I just want my piece of informational technology to keep it simple to get information. New functions are cool, power-thirsty UI animations and changes to familiar UI elements every 3 months is not (imo)
