Article note: This is a _glorious_ shitpost about Apple's design trends.\nThe story really is very similar in either direction, Apple had a competent OS from like 2002-2016. OS X was a jank beta made by slapping goofy infantile but computationally expensive visuals on top of NextStep before that, and is iOS's less-liked sibling after, and the goofy designs at either extreme are oddly similar.<\/div>

Apple’s first desktop operating system was Tahoe. Like any first version, it had a lot of issues. Users and critics flooded the web with negative reviews. While mostly stable under the hood, the outer shell — the visual user interface — was jarringly bad. Without much experience in desktop UX, Apple’s first OS looked like a Fisher-Price toy: heavily rounded corners, mismatched colors, inconsistent details and very low information density. Obviously, the tool was designed mostly for kids or perhaps light users or elderly people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Credit where credit is due: Apple had listened to their users and the next version – macOS Sequoia — shipped with lots of fixes. Border radius was heavily reduced, transparent glass-like panels replaced by less transparent ones, buttons made more serious and less toyish. Most system icons made more serious, too, with focus on more detail. Overall, it seemed like the 2nd version was a giant leap from infancy to teenage years.<\/p>\n↫ Rakhim Davletkali<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
