I dunno. I got the new interface and like…it’s aggressively meh? Nothing amazing, nothing terrible. Y’all are starting to sound like late-10s Facebook grandmas. “But it looks like vibe code!” Yeah, and in the 90s everything looked like Windows, and in the early-00s everything was skeuomorphic, and in the mid-10s everything was flat design. This is an unfortunate design trend, but they’re all unfortunate. “But rounded corners!” …so? I mean, honestly, I can’t think of a single logical objective problem with them. I don’t like them much either, but I don’t have any actual criticism of them. As far as I can tell, the only reasonable objection is that they aren’t super great for colorblind folks. That’s real and should absolutely be fixed. But beyond that…

Just a week ago, my computer was perfectly fine for daily internet usage, now that they modernised the UI and i updated UI sometimes lags behind in firefox. It has slightly worse performance than before, i used to use x201, firefox got stuttery with some forums i used(no stutters with chromium, just ff) and i updated to x230. Now this one has visible lagging as well, ff doesn’t provide any improvements over chromium, i just use it out of stubbornnes yet it just keeps getting worse and i have to compremise more to use it. I am always around the bottom border of performance, ff is always the reason i have to upgrade but i don’t have a laptop i want to uprade to. Now i am on the lookout for some new browser even thought i don’t wanna.

The default stupid ass gradient colors literally hurt my eyes. Not exactly great for a software you’ll be staring at for hours, is it? Defaults should be unassuming. Why do I need to install random themes just so I could use a stupid browser without hurting my eyeballs?
