Absolutely not.

@mrudokas @tuomas_h completely agree with you. What I meant by "over polished" is when the UI is already great, that doesn't need further tweaks. It happens sometimes that designers want to go over the top, and ends up overengineering the UI, pushing it to a point that is no longer great anymore.

@tuomas_h You're completely right. This weird limbo you mentioned is very frustrating.

Over the last five years, I’ve also learned that bad UI is often intentional. Anything that can be monetized or criticized becomes a kind of currency. If people keep talking, reacting, and chasing quick dopamine hits, it’s a business win.

The older I get both in age and in my experience as a designer, the more I value functional UI over aesthetic UI. Is the interface self-explanatory? Does it help me solve a problem? If both answers are yes, then it’s good UI. I’m no longer a fan of overly simplified, overly animated, or over-polished interfaces.

I don't get selfies on LinkedIn. You're explaining why your last business meeting was a success. That's great Karen, but I don't need to see your Instagrammed face.
