idk why zoomers insist on calling it that when no one outside a MS design ever did so before 2020
>>107898105What do you call it?
>>107898133NTA but it was simply called Aero.
>>107898101>Frutiger...Aerotica...
yes, what of it?
>>107898169i once had an ant live in my transparent Gameboy.
>>107898396One ant? Could always be worse.

>>107898101How can early 00's and late 00's both be frutiger if the styles were entirely different? Just compare XP and Mac OS 9 to Vista and Mac OS Tiger?
>>107898613macos or xp are not frutiger
>>107898169Home.
I just don't like how different styles from different times are all being lumped together under a single "frutiger aero" label that never existed in real life, by zoomerd who weren't even alive at the time.Transparent bright colors like on the gameboy color, n64, dreamcast, original GBA, iMac G3, etc were from a very specific period of time from like 1996-2001. The Aero glassy look didn't come around until 2006 with windows vista, and that was a style that dominated the late 2000s. We're talking a decade of difference here. The funtastic late 90s transparent colors were NOT cool at this time. Everything was either fake chrome or glossy black/white
>>107898832It's easy to lump everything into one if you never experienced it yourself.
>>107898143>Aerothats a different thing
>>107898101i'm probably gonna sound like an edgy contrarian here, but i actually really liked the high resolution, flat colors associated with modern windows. it's just that everything else about windows (ads, privacy and user autonomy violations, jeetcode, etc) sucks.i switched to linux mint and it really feels quiet and serene to see nothing but a flat black bar across the bottom of the desktop.frutiger aero and skeuomorphism looks great for low resolution interfaces, but on a 4K monitor it's usually upscaled in a clunky manner.
>>107898897I used dark Windows Classic theme at that time so current Windows looks actually closer to what I used back then.
>>107898880frutiger is a fucking font
>>107898169this is 90s
>>107898613Differences only exist in a brainrotted zoomer's fantasy.
>>107898832>>107898839I still can't tell whether the Frutiger part is a forced meme or an actual manifestation of teenagers' nostalgia for a world they've never seen. Everyone called it Aero back in the day.
>>107899028It's a real zoomer thing.
ITT people who went to 80s themed parties with sweatbands and unitards on or 60s parties with a tye dye shirt and bellbottoms complain about a younger generation misrepresenting their youth
>>107899086How DARE you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
