    I guess we’re past the era when apple was known for at least having good design

      The Liquid Ass guy didn’t have any previous experience in UI design, he came straight from advertising. Guess that’s what happens when you put an advertising dude in charge of redesigning your entire software line-up’s UI/UX.

    Write an article about good UI. Post it on a page where it is snowing so it becomes incredibly annoying to read.

    The irony is golden.

    For one moment I thought it might mess wit AI bots. But no it probably does not.

      “A software engineer with a strong UI/UX background” -> barely able to build a functioning website

      The site really feels like it’s been vibe coded.

    I can’t help but feel UI design peaked in the mid 90’s, but that may just be mid-life man yelling at clouds.
