I personally like the "old bathroom mat" look. It needs a little dirty spots and it would be perfect.

I'd change this to my gf's phone and act like it was just a new update

Only if the touchscreen also has a fluffy texture.

Come on, at least cowsay or robotfindskitten. I once hacked into a Linux kiosk and found the former in a "games" directory.

It's graphene bro. There's nothing this thing can't do, excepting send/report any non required type of telemetry.

If my phone would feel this soft carpet texture when I type or swipe i would love it for sure

They need to tie into the accelerometer and make those fuzzies dance when your phone moves.

And leave threads lying in directions you touched them in. Yes, it's a lot of RAM but who needs multitasking? Impression at the store is what drives sales.

be the change you want to see and add it to lemmy

I want one with different coloured grass and if you touch it enough it wears down into dirt path

Anything is better than Liquid Glass

Strongly disagree.

I know it became a meme, but I love Liquid Glass. It’s 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. 😁

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.

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

The UI regressed to Windows Aero from Vista. Took 20 years, but they made it full circle.

Unironically tho, I would so use a Windows Areo inspired UI (like Exposed Air on KDE Plasma) on mobile android.

Does it also get dirty and sticky the more you touch it. If so, I am in. Best privacy feature.

If it did get dirty I would have to try it. As it is though, not interested, and slightly put off.

Each pixel would be a few mm long, soft hair (subpixels would blend in through the material) so the geometry would inevitably & intentionally be imperfect (differently) all the time.

Bad tech for text on my phone, great for my short-shorts.

It's all fun and games till they keep it because they like it...

After using the kiss launcher set to icons disabled I forget people use icons and it always feels so weird, even more when they are fuzzy

Damnit, it doesn't seem like this supports Lawnchair launcher. I emailed the developers after I bought this icon pack.
