Creativity is all about having a singular vision! Now change this script that 10 random strangers assembled in a room didn't like after half-reading it once.

A lot of talk around Adobe & Canva Affinity recently. Here's my 2 cents. A lot of us old creatives grew up in a time of competition between design apps (Quark, Corel, Macromedia, Omni). Competition was good. It forced the cream to rise to the top and acted as bulwark against a single walled-garden.

Apple F'ed-up with OS 26. Liquid Glass is hienous. I'm already in the process of switching back to Android. What to do about desktop remains the big question.

After living with Apple's new UI for almost a month, it's... fine, I guess? I've got used to it. It's still not "good". But weighing it against the hassle of switching platforms, I'm resigned to staying on apple. I'd rather have everything work and be slightly ugly than the alternative.

I figured out why I hate Liquid Glass so much. It looks like a kid who’s using Photoshop for the first time, discovered the Bevel & Emboss filter, and has applied it to EVERYTHING. It’s childish, and immature.

I've been a Mac user since 1992, and Liquid Glass has turned me off so badly that I'm 90% sure I'm going to switch to Linux (Zorin OS) and Android (Google Pixel). The question is: Build a desktop PC from scratch? OR go with a laptop (like Framework 16)?

I hate apple’s liquid glass so much I’m thinking of going all linux & android. And this is from someone who’s been a die-hard mac user since 1992.

Just updated all my apple devices to the new OS. The UI is so bad. Just godawful.

I heard once that "respect" can mean "treat as a person" or it can mean "obey the authority of", and very often someone wants you to obey their authority before they'll treat you like a person.
“Civility” is how the modern Right — and increasingly the modern “middle” — describes the attitude “thank you Sir, may I have another”
also I don’t give a shit about “civility,” who cares

There's no shame in being wrong about something.
