As I update a VM to the latest macOS Tahoe, I'm reminded of how damn UGLY it is.
Apple: Let's make the corner radius huge. But inconsistently.

With this level of YOLO, I have to assume that they must've hired some Linux UI devs.

@wdormann inb4 "if linux ui devs had a functioning gui in which to view this toot, they would be very mad at you"

@reverseics @wdormann

Well, now my argument seems awkward!

[reverseics@infosec.exchange]

@jackryder @wdormann Well I. Wait, hang on. recompiles kernel angrily.

@reverseics @wdormann

The original post is obviously fake and slanderous. What the hell even IS a UI?

[aleksimanninen@cyberplace.social]

@wdormann with those results I assume Apple pays to their UI designers as much as the linux ui designers get.

@wdormann Looks like I'll continue to stay on Sequoia

[wdormann@infosec.exchange]

Here is Sequoia over top of Tahoe.
macOS always had rounded corners.
But with Tahoe, some windows are simply rounder. But some are way rounder.

That plus I hear that at least on "old" M1 systems, it's noticeably slower.

Is the goal to have (some) macOS window radiuses similar to the physical screen radius on an iPhone?

If so, why?

@wdormann macos runs on iphone A-series hardware now with the advent of the neo right? some sort of weird iphone ultra-pro-hyper-max that runs touch macos and you dock at work and home instead of carrying a laptop?

@interpipes
Yeah, I suspect this is all the result of the OS convergence we've been hearing about for years in the Apple world.

I guess rather than an OS that works well for the device you have it on, we'll have two different device types that both run a non-ideal compromise.
