      Seconded. I don't need a recipe-blog-length analysis to gain value from what the author has to say and appreciated the additional comments this article has spurred on.

      Here's a comment from the author, who is surprised that it's at the top of HN and calls it "a dashed-off blog post about a real blog post": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45561201 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45561201 This submission has now been flagged, so I'm clearly not alone here.

        No one said you're alone. But yay, now a discussion has been closed because a three people complained.

        > now a discussion has been closed because a three people complained Incorrect. Discussion continues on the original submission: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45544044 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45544044 It makes no sense to have two simultaneous discussions on HN of the exact same article.

        Attention! All discussion has been moved to a new thread. Why are you still commenting here? Don't you understand it doesn't make sense to continue talking here if there's already conversation elsewhere? Goodness, whatever you do please don't reply or you'll just continue the problem!

The original article is absolutely damning of the UI. It is eye opening (no pun intended). I mean I had a gut feeling it would be bad for a11y when I saw it but they really twist the knife.

Author here. I was also surprised to see this getting a bunch of HN traffic suddenly. I guess the Liquid Glass hate is pretty strong when a dashed-off blog post about a real blog post can randomly do numbers! Heartened to see that others are annoyed by this design as well, though. Hopefully Apple will do something about it, but I'm not holding my breath.

  I don’t know if you remember iOS 7, it was a catastrophe. Designs evolve on Apple platforms, usually in the correct direction. Anecdotally, I have used Liquid Glass since the first beta and I honestly think there are a lot of good things there. Took me a few months but I actually like it now (and I have some colleagues in there same boat as me).
