Hopeful news from Apple... sounds like Meta is getting exactly the kind of designer it deserves! (perhaps the aberration that is iOS 26 'glassy' is not a coincidence!)
""If you care about design, there's nowhere to go but down after leaving Apple," said Gruber, in a lengthy post citing conversations with Apple employees. "What people overlooked is the obvious: Alan Dye doesn't actually care about design."
Gruber said that everyone he spoke to inside and outside of Apple was "happy" — if not downright "giddy" — to learn that Lemay is replacing Dye.
"Lemay is well-liked personally and deeply respected talent-wise," he said.”

See all the blank pixels? Why does #Mastodon hide a popup menu here??

A long time ago, when I've used the #Opera browser (the real one), I've discovered mouse #gestures. Even though I've only used the basic ones like back / forward / reload / close tab, I've found them brilliant. To this day, I can't comprehend why not only modern browsers rejected this feature, but also why it didn't become widespread across desktop GUIs.
But then, today the peak application #UX is a website packed in a vulnerable low quality embedded browser. And designers are blindly trying to copy bad mobile designs into desktop PC applications, with no consideration how ill fit they are.
