Operating system UI has not changed in the last 30 years.

Shining gem, God imagine if Amerimutts weren't fascinated by macOS's disgusting UI and appreciated functional sensibilities, technology would've healed. Now you will get your rounded corners on your sharp cornered monitor edges, GPU accelerated translucency that ruins performance and readability, animations that slow down your workflow, and ugly diverse corpo art. jfl

>GPU accelerated translucency that ruins performance

Do you believe the CPU can do translucency any better?

If it ain't broke, don't try to innovate. Menus are still the peak way to navigate GUI programs. Things started turning to shit when MS introduced the ribbon interface in Office.

This is why Xfce is the only de for me.

>>106506783
truth.

Honestly, every person with zero experience thinks they know how to do things better than before and ends up reinventing the same thing but worse. In every industry.

I always customize my XFCE to be as close as possible to old windows

>>106506569
apart from using frames (round frames if you want), little pictures called "icons" and the alphabet, there is not much you can do really except using the command line which also has good reasons to be the way it is. we write from left to right, up to down.
because thats how typewriters worked so, thats how its going to be for the next 1000 years at least.

now thats my type of humor.

>Operating system UI
Its a GUI
JFC you retards have been so satuated by (((Microsoft))) you still think the forcing the GUI to be bundled with the OS magically changes what an OS is.
>>
>>106506569
They actually degraded. Since microdick decided to make their OS touch-friendly with window 8 onwards, information dense UI's have never recovered. Linux is fine tho c:
>>
>>106506656
not that guy but transparency is that it doesn't even look good
that's the fucking point
>>
It's ugly, clunky, and outdated and all of you boomers praising this are retarded and don't know anything about good UI and instead are blinded by nostalgia because Microsoft and Apple are currently incompetent when it comes to designing the GUI for an OS
>>
>>106506569
why would it change, the interaction is still keyboard + mouse on a 2d display just like 30 years ago, there is no reason to change anything about it.
>>
>>106510774
>blinded by nostalgia
Bullshit. I use Posready 2009 as my daily driver it looks more or less like that in classic mode.
>>
>>106510774
What do (You) know about good UI?
