Marco ArmentAt this point, I don’t see much evidence that Dye’s team uses computers.

We could really use an in-person big WWDC in San Francisco so someone could stand up at the keynote and ask " WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING? "

Adam Faircloth@BenRiceM @marcoarment @gruber I'm not sure what they were trying to convey with that video of the acrylic desk toys, but it made me feel embarrassed for them

Ryan Poolos@marcoarment @gruber they use Figma and Sketch hours a day I’m sure. Notably two apps that do not use hardly any native UI and are designed to clearly separate their UI from your content. They don’t feel any of this.
And having worked with designers a long time. Screenshot based design is hard to shake. When you can cherry pick content you can make a lot of mistakes.
rileyslidey@ryanpoolos in what world is Sketch not native
@rileyslidey sketch is plenty native but it’s UI is far from typical. It has two sidebars made up of nearly 100% custom UI designed to be fully separate from your content aka your designs.
@ryanpoolos hm, I’m forcing the redesign on the app using a terminal command and it seems to update accordingly, maybe it’s a custom layout using native controls?
John Gruber@ryanpoolos @marcoarment I don’t think anyone at Apple uses dogma because it’s a web app?
iOSLife@marcoarment what’s a computer?
Is there a os26 beta for Vision Pro and have the three people who own Vision Pros dared bother to install it?
Because that is the only Apple platform I could imagine Liquid Glass making the slightest lick of sense. Glue those 3d glass buttons to a wall.
@Chancerubbage @marcoarment (a) I think Apple has sold around 1m Vision Pros.
(b) The style of VisionOS hasn’t really changed in v26 betas. Effectively, VisionOS has been designed with Liquid Glass all along.
Netzzwerk@marcoarment what’s a computer? 🤪
adacosta@marcoarment I think the designers are in their own little world at #Apple. They gaslight themselves with specially curated content that gives them the self assurance what they are doing is right. There is CEO with obsessive design experience and temper tantrum walking over there to let them know the truth.
dickclaus@marcoarment I don’t see the contrast for selection on iPhone in mastodon client. Until I start looking closely
Robert Siuda@marcoarment @gruber ”AI Vibe Design“ could explain the shitty execution and reasoning.
tambourineman@marcoarment or phones.
Pieter Omvlee@marcoarment @gruber maybe they just played obsessively with these glassy bricks they kept showing us. That would track with what we’re seeing now 🙈
Zach Weigand@marcoarment @gruber “Traditional computing devices are going to go by the wayside in a couple years.”
Well, they are certainly trying to help by making current hardware less useable.
