@BambuSource well, stealing is a bit strong word in this case because they all steal shit from each other all the time :) there are better words to describe it, especially when you look at how you phrased the first two. It's just that this is whole place is turning from devRant to winRant, so it's kinda poking my eye :)

@Froot me, too! But my gf really really really really hates it.
@nikola1402 yea, I know. But you gotta say the glass thing comes from Windows (done wrong https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipe...) was done right by Apple and now Windows does it right, too xD -
@BambuSource I agree with that, and I admit that I was jealous abot frosted glass that Apple made. But that foggy(?) glass in Windows7 still looks nice to me :D Also, you never said in your post that Apple stole the glass thing from Microsoft :P

Am I the only one who liked Metro? Best design language, in my opinion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

I've always hated googles material design. apple's ui's are always fluid, but the response to presses always look gross to me. just my opinion, but windows almost looks better than google's

hacker17727y@BambuSource cool! I like Apple's blurred backgrounds.
You got a new CodePen follower! :) -
Froot75547y@BambuSource @calmyourtities Why do people hate material design?
As for MS design languages.
I think they did a good job with win7, it was a coherent experience that followed the same design language throughout. And the design itself was nice for the time, it looked good and was easy to use.
It all went downhill after that tho. Win8 was the worst offender with its tablet focused design, it looked cool at first but was not good to use and the whole experience wasn't coherent.
Win10 introduced some new cool things but the experience is still not coherent. Half the menus look like win10 and the other half look like win7. And I'm glad they kept the win7 menus, they are much better to use than the overminimalistic win10 ones. All in all I think MS has taken the minimalism a notch too far so that their design is starting to lose utility for the sake of being minimal.
Also, while talking about design, Arch Theme looks top notch. A good balance of simplicity and utility. -
@Froot what I said was my personal opinion. I just dislike win7s look. And I wish they'd add acrylic (like the new calc) too any app, like notepad and explorer, my opinion

@Lahsen2016 right. But if I had, it would have been Ubuntus default UI, no idea what it's called
