Stefan_S_from_HApple design chief Alan Dye departs for Meta
bleistift2I was curious about the quote, but it got jpegged away :(
SantasMagicalComfortIt’s a Steve Jobs quote:
“Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.”
ohhh, so Microsoft is bad at design, I was trying to pinpoint exactly what was so fucked up with their shit
because seriously how the fuck does nothing Microsoft just work anymore
even notepad was enshittified, I just learned there’s fucking copilot in notepad. I’m trying to hold out on Win10 at work, but they’re also making OneDrive trigger BSODs a few times a day now…
TBF Microsoft also don’t know how to make things look and feel right. For ages, their primary UI design tools were a toolbar crammed with buttons end to end, a vertical list crammed with items, and a table crammed with items row by row — culminating in Windows 8’s tiles. MS didn’t understand that people need spatial organization, spacing and margins, and only recently started separating toolbar buttons by function in their apps.
Damn. Truly a visionary I must say. Nobody ever thought to think of a design in terms of how something works before
No but seriously though, I don’t really get this quote. Isn’t that… obvious?
For Apple? No, it isn’t. Which is why we got the incredible air phone or whatever that shit was.
They make quality stuff, but it’s always been about vanity. Drives me nuts how much some people are religious about their shit.

It wasn’t jpegged away, that’s the awesome joke.
