I so much want Holo style back
I really don’t understand the Material allure.
I build web apps as a job and the impression I get is that everyone wants Material, “because” - but I don’t know if anyone wants it other than “because” it’s the buzzword of the day.
And it always sucks because the clients always say, “Follow Material guidelines BUT make this smaller, make this less round, use this font we paid for, make the buttons different, and also customize all these components”.
It’s dumb.
The guidelines are a culmination of well-researched UX basics in practice. They’re meant to be stylistically customizable to any brand, or user preference. It’s just the best starting point in software design at the moment.
Sadly Firefox is going the complete other way and not even introducing a smidgen of Material You in its redesign.
Sometimes I wonder if the reason is because Mozilla doesn’t want to associate their browser with Google. It’s just kind of a wild guess, but that’s kind of what I think. But then again, Mozilla has some really weird branding fetish
I would kill for at least an amoled theme for Firefox. The light gray is way off compared to other apps.
Good, material you sucks
The new Material design doesn’t look good to me so, personally, I see that as a good thing
Each to their own. I’m enjoying how my phone looks. It can be improved for sure, but it’s certainly not bad.
