i want to go back so badwhy is everything so ugly now?
>>103235776Software equivalent of brutalist architecture
>>103235776Keep in mind that our nostalgia only remembers the best examples of those design eras.Just look at the UI on that Galaxy S3. It's a mess.
>>103235776y2k shit is so fucking uglythat black monolithic xbox looks cool
>>103235776Flat "design" is not even design. Its lacks sufficient features to qualify, its not anything.
>>103235830nigga you're flat
>>103235776I like the transparent plastic trend, but I guess it's actually bad for the electronics
How well would pre Flat designs handle varying screen resolution? Certain legacy software and Windows system popups looked blurred on my 4K monitor.
>>103235776Jeets and chinks.That's literally what it always comes down to.
>>103235776Marxist liberals want to be "diverse" so flat design appeals to them in ugliness.
dates are wrong thoughMemphis is 1983 to 1993Y2K is 1996 to 9/11/2001Aero is 2005 to 2012Flatshit is 2013 to 11/5/2024
>>103235776I remember thinking all those styles were oppressively ugly and ubiquitous at the time. Zoomer nostalgia for it puzzles me.Gen Alpha will, in 15 years' time, be bemoaning the loss of the "clean" millennial graphic design style, they'll have some name for it you've never heard before, they'll think the whole world must have been so simple and twee and heckin wholesome chungus back then, why can't we retvrn
>>103235776Just customize your PC to match one of those styles. If you use Linux this is trivial. If you use Windows you might need Openshell or some other equivalent, but it is still doable. If you use Mac you are just SOL. You don't have to let big-tech determine your styles unless you want to.
Aesthetics peaked with Art Deco and we've been degenerating ever since.
>>103238231I actually loved the style of Vista when I was little. The glass look was what made me beg my parents for a new PC

>>103235776I miss transparent colored plastics.
>>103238231I never once looked at Windows XP and though, "man, this is so oppressive." Same with W7, Mac OSX. Sure, earlier than that, yes, the blocky design of W95 looked a bit depressing, but it made up for it with the number of themes it shipped with, complete with sounds and cursors. It was not peak (that was Snow leopard and Lion), but it was almost peak.
