I know how @siracusa loves how Apple found ways to minimize the color differences so we can't see buttons and such, so I made this wee video just for him (but you can watch it too if you like.)
Apple often says ‘best iPhone lineup ever,’ but this year it’s so true https://9to5mac.com/2025/09/25/apple-often-says-best-iphone-lineup-ever-but-this-year-its-so-true/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
@9to5Mac but #iOS26 is horrible so it doesn’t matter if the hardware is good. And #macOS26 bricked my M1 Max (thankfully the M4 Max is fine) and others are reporting this same issue. Brilliant! I thought last year was bad. This year is far worse. The supposed workaround for Liquid Glass hurting eyes doesn’t work when I enabled it long ago. Changing icons of OTHER apps is so wrong. That is part of their brand. All this rubbish makes me want to defenestrate my devices. A disgrace.

I'm not a particularly smart designer, but I always thought that consistency was supposed to be the ultimate aspiration - with differences only occurring when justifiable. So I'm still in shock that of all the big software releases this month - #MacOS26, #Android16 - it is #Gnome49 that seems to step forward in this regard.
The Linux platform is not without its problems and limitations, but the team behind #Gnome really deserve massive kudos: https://release.gnome.org/49/

Also, wenn ihr alle sagt, #iOS26 sei schwer zu lesen, dann hab ich hier _den_ Hintergrundbild-Tipp für euch! 😂
Ich kann manche Kritik an #LiquidGlass teils aber echt nicht nachvollziehen. Ja, manches ist nicht perfekt, aber, dass Leute jetzt meckern die stark abgerundeten Ecken würden Platz verschwenden? Bitte? Hab ich echt mehrfach gelesen…
Der rote Bereich hier sind 38*38 Pixel, also 1.444 in Summe. Hätte man vielleicht halb so groß machen können, dann wären es 20*20px = 400px.
Ich sitz vor einem 4K Screen. Der hat 3840*2160 px, also schlappe 8.294.400px. Oder 0,00482%
I was soooo excited to learn that with macOS Tahoe, we'd be able to change the color and icons on folders. I'd tried a couple of third-party apps to do this, and while they worked ok, they didn't show in the Finder sidebar. Guess what? macOS 26's colors and icons don't show in the Finder sidebar either. Why, Apple? Why??? 😢
Els dispositius d'Apple s'actualitzen amb la versió 26. Entre d'altres, millores de IA i el nou tema Liquid Glass que no agrada a tothom.
