I'm not as full of hatred for Liquid Glass as some folks, but I haven't encountered anything about it that fills me with delight, and I don't like this transparent UI one bit. Also, oversaturated MacOS app icons are garishly awful and I don't like faux blurring. Guess it's time to dig into settings.

Comparing the toolbars between Pages 15 (15.1?) and Pages 14:

Why is this a unified toolbar? You can barely see any of the title. Sure, you can expand the window but sometimes you just don’t have the space. The fat toolbar items are just so space inefficient.

Oh and it gets worse if you show the labels (as the default used to be).

Apps just tend to get more and more user hostile and I'm really trying to understand why?

“I love it when I press a flat button and it morphs briefly into a skeuomorphic shiny bubble of some sort before morphing back into a flat menu.”

Nah, fuck it, turned everything back on again. Why should I fix your damn broken interface and fool myself into thinking this piece of shit is anything but? Going to experience iOS 26 in all its enshittified glory. Will make it easier to hate this phone and move onto something more ethical once it finally croaks.

Apple is likely one release cycle away from going full Microsoft/Google anyway.

For reasons, I am having to update my phone to swinish iOS 26. Please send me your tips & or tricks for reducing/eliminating the most egregious aspects of #LiquidGlass.

Please.

That’s confusing: Why are there two close/"x"-buttons side-by-side in the #Safari address bar?
