Strongly disagree.
I know it became a meme, but I love Liquid Glass. Itβs never been an issue for me to read (in practice, anyway, as there were some examples in the announcement video that were hard to read but I assume those were from earlier builds).
The refraction is beautiful, the contrast is sufficient, it delivers on the promise Windows Aero made but could never achieve.
Plus I welcome with open arms a return to skeuomorphism. Controls appearing to have depth is so much nicer than the flat look everyone used for so long. I also love the jiggling that menus do when you touch them. π
Skueomorphism is great but Liquid Glass feels like someone told Apple "UI should be invisible" and they took it literally instead of metaphorically
I don't care for a UI that insists upon itself
Finally someone else who agrees with me on this. I love Liquid Glass and I thought I was the only one. Nice to see someone else feels the same way.
