There’s a *lot* of talk about how great it is that Alan Dye has left Apple. I agree: UI design has been a disaster under Dye. Liquid Glass on the Mac in particular is a train wreck. But as I’ve said before, OS X Lion was when the Mac UI began to go downhill. Reduced contrast, full screen mode on maximise, the death of Save As in favour of the useless Duplicate … the UI decay began long ago. As with macOS Tahoe, there were lots of great technical improvements. But for users, especially novice users, it was a backward step followed by further backward steps. Let’s hope that starts to reverse, and quickly. #macos #alandye #byedye #osxlion
