You say that, but that’s what Apple has been doing with Liquid Glass, and tons of people hate it, myself included

Liquid Glass is WindowsVistaMorphism done wrong not Skeuomorphism. Skeuomorphism requires the UI to at least approximate real life objects for each use case.

Like the old Notes app on the iPhone/iPad that looked like it was a yellow legal pad!

Liquid glass is not skeuomorphism, it’s just Windows Aero 20 years later. Simulating the realistic look of single material and using it for all the interface is quite the opposite of skeuomorphism. As such things don’t exist in real life. There were never music stereo players made entirely of glass. So they are not imitating anything that has ever existed.

A pretty good chance some luxury model might have been made for such a thing.
Even if not normally produced, some rich guy might have had it custom made.

As an android user liquid glass is the only apple thing i’m envious of. Android looks boring af, a little playfulness doesn’t hurt

How much liquid glass do you encounter in your daily life? Do you live in a kiln?

That is probably what the image in the post is about, really.

It’s supposed to make the program more accessible for those who are not used to the concept of computer programs at all.

It will come back when all the big players are only offering cloud services, to ensure normies don’t demand that computing be allowed in the hands of everyone again. “It’s so easy to use! Why couldn’t those old PC things get it right? God those were terrible, I’m so glad we subscribe to ChatGPT for $80 a month, and those scary Muslim leftists get ion-cannoned when they have conversations about how they want life to be better instantly now.”

Don’t please.

I remember these UIs and learning after many hours that one of the elements was clickable.

This is horrible design from a usability standpoint.
