"Hey, I want to test something on a specific generation of CPU that I don't own. Maybe this 'cloud' thing will come in handy!"

An hour later...

"How the fuck does anyone work with this shit without blowing their brains out. Everything is slow and intransparent and convoluted and buggy and I'd rather buy an entire computer than try to get this to work."

I have named timers, reminders with descriptions, calendar events, notes, to-do lists….then I just ignore all the notifications and carry on as I were 🙃
There are some really poor Liquid Glass comparison shots going around comparing between dark mode and light mode that have convinced the normies and YouTubers that Apple has turned off the effect completely, which is nonsense. Beta 3 is still glassy af
@_Davidsmith It takes away the focus away from the actual content. In Safari it’s similar, you scroll and something flickers in the corners. Visually it’s eye candy, but that’s about it…
@_Davidsmith must be over sensitive to the movement and colour change. Find it awful myself.

My goodness, Liquid Glass overlaid over a panning radar map is something else. Totally mesmerizing. I just found myself sitting here slowly panning around for a few minutes.

Must get back to work…

@siracusa Am I the only one bothered by the disk image flatness not matching the 3D effect of the other elements? I don’t mind this as a concept but this jarring contrast is tough for my OCD 😅

Thanks @siracusa! Looks pretty much like the current menu bar, which is nice to see.

I’ve not installed any of the betas but I’m not a fan of what I’ve seen so far. The 3D effects and transparency are so distracting to me. I hope Apple includes plenty of customisation options to tone it down and get a flatter frosted glass look instead 🤞

Mmmmm…settings…
