Things went wrong when desktop UIs had to be phonefied. It started a dumbing down chain reaction, and race to the bottom. Built-in spying and advertising is just a side effect of this chain reaction.

BeOS was destroyed by Microsoft threats to OEM computer manufacturers when Microsoft told them All they would lose their dcount OEM licensing if they included BeOS on computers

That should have been enough to get Microsoft in trouble with the dept of justice

Gaynome was the downfall. It's twice as gay now that it's run by IBM.

Use Linux and make a desktop that looks right for you with themes/configs. That's what I do. It's not even that hard, just takes a little time and elbow grease. Which is worth it for a "space" that you're spending a lot of time in.

I still don't understand one thing: why rounded corners and Fisher Price aesthetic are a thing? It represents offensive design language. If you have ever been to a psych ward in a civilized country, they have sort of weird interiors along with rounded corners etc because it's supposedly easier for the patients.
No real designer would willingly create anything with round shapes or at least when it is associated with typography and usability.
