Why must everything be delayed by spring loaded, squishy animation?
Why must the legibility of UI text suffer for skeuomorphic aesthetic?
“Reduce motion” and “reduce transparency” are binary accessibility settings, but iOS 26 makes me want a 0.75 reduction option.

The border radius will increase until morale improves.

Opinion after 1 day of Liquid Glass and 1 day of “reduce transparency” enabled:
Liquid Glass is trash, but the other UI changes are quite good!
Enabling “reduce transparency” disables Liquid Glass in iOS 26 and macOS 26. It is a necessity for me because of my astigmatism.
The resulting flat aesthetic then reveals many thoughtful, incremental UI improvements.
It also reveals a bunch of cringe small margin and border issues, but still a net positive.

@Jeremiah thank you for sharing this! I was checking out reactions on Reddit and several people seemed to say that the "reduce transparency" setting didn't change things much and they wish they'd revert back to iOS 18. I have several Apple devices - old iPad & iPhone - so I may take the jump to see what it's like...

@enzoesco non lo sono mai stati, anche il giubileo ebraico era ogni 50 anni (o forse 49, il sette volte sette. Non sono certo se fosse l'anno successivo oppure quello di ordine 49)

From Gaza, we write, our hearts suspended between fear and hope. We are being bombed without mercy. I write to you with sadness filling my heart. I can no longer bear it. I suffer in silence. All that matters to me is the safety of my family.
Please help me, support me and share the donation link. You are our only hope.

Trump annuncia sanzioni severissime verso l’organizzazione radicale di sinistra Antifa.
C’è un solo dettaglio trascurabile: l’organizzazione non esiste.
Quindi siamo lì: sempre di pensiero magico si tratta, come ai bei tempi dell’assalto al Campidoglio.
