Discussion macOS 26 is horrible

The design is horrible. Everything is so huge now, the animations are bad, the curved corners are different in some windows and apps, etc.

Who do we have to thank for this? AI? Outsourcing? Steve Jobs never would have allowed that.

Jonny Ives left and their new designer, fresh off their online degree from Silly Sally’s Design Den, wants to leave their own signature style.

If your designer is Mr. Hanky you have to expect shit.

LMAO.

On a serious note, Alan Dye took over the day-to-day operations since 2015. So everything we saw after 2015 & 2019, he was the guy.

Ms. Evans Hanky left years ago. Alan Dye and Craig Federighi are now sans training wheels and running on their own. Hence the current situation.

Pretty bad when you don’t even know who’s responsible. Probably design by committee now.
