I despise Liquid Glass because it's all (questionable) looks on the outside and bad UI regressions on the inside.

The 'convergence' (fucking euphemism) between iOS and Mac OS is something I saw coming many years ago and I'm simply waiting for the day when Mac OS will be fully iOS-ified. I'm not looking forward to it. But I will also have left Apple behind before that happens.

I also don’t know where Troughton-Smith got the idea that “The Mac has been aligning with iOS since 2006”. Steve Jobs wanted the iPad to be the central device for what he called ‘Post-PC era’, but wanted Mac OS and the Mac to carry on and be the ‘trucks’ as opposed to iPads being the ‘cars’ — and Mac OS would have thrived as the OS for Pros. The first real iOS concessions he allowed in Mac OS X happened with Lion (2011). See: Launchpad, fullscreen apps, instant-resume for apps, auto-save…
@morrick lol the iPhone wasn't introduced until 2007, so what the hell is he talking about?
