"every day we stray farther off steve’s light.. #ios26"

Mert really has a point:
"okay we all had our fun—now here’s what’s actually wrong with iOS26:
bugs? whatever, it’s beta 1
but the liquid glass UI as it's implemented now? a hierarchy, legibility, and complexity nightmare
jony ive said it best referring to bauhaus: “they figured out how to bend tubes, so they made everything out of bent tubes”this is what it looks like when:
the CEO isn’t a product guy
PMs infiltrate and erode a functional org
no one is personally held accountablewithout maniacs with taste at the top, you can't ship a great product. esp one this complex.
everything looks good in isolation—but the big picture? it’s chaos.
and the PM disease is showing: every element screams for your attention because each team’s optimizing their own KPIs.
this is an orchestra without a conductor
and it's extremely disrespectful to the designers at apple who likely poured incredible amount of effort into making their own individual pixels look perfect. tim cook MUST do better conducting the incredible orchestra that is apple"
- It's just a phone.ideaist
- Jobs said otherwise.********
- But it's just a Beta version, they will probably change stuff until final release.
Otherwise for us designers it will be a big pain to design for this system.******** - Btw Sketch already released the UI library
