Amazing Finder fail in macOS 26 Tahoe - in Column view, the horizontal scrollbars obscure the column resize handles when the always show scroll bars preference is set.

I hate to be one of those “I’ve been using a Mac since 1984 people” (because it me) but this is bananas unacceptable. How am I supposed to resize Finder columns? I _like_ seeing my scroll bars all the time - it's way windows should work. Grrrrr.

@thomasfuchs you must be holding it wrong

How about let’s not?

Why can’t I search within a PDF in #iOS' #Safari? I have to download it first and then open it with this new, distracting #Preview app (https://sigmoid.social/@pixeltracker/115224504765720886)!

#LiquidGlass ...😒 The contrast of notifications is now so low that I can hardly distinguish them from the apps underneath. When I first saw this, I thought my #VSCode had gotten a new #Fantastical integration.

Oh my gods, just noticed how many different keyboard layouts ⌨️ there are in #iOS26 right now. Completely inconsistent! Every app seems to use its own version 🤦

#Apple #LiquidGlass #LiquidAss

And I honestly don’t get what this whole “liquid” glass design in #iOS26 is supposed to be good for. Sure, the buttons look kind of squishy – and “liquid”. But so what? You can’t drag them around, interact with them, or do anything meaningful. They just sit there. I’m no design expert, but this “liquidness” pretends to have functionality while being nothing more than cosmetic fluff without purpose.

Btw, this is how images with fine textures (like screenshots) look in the #iOS26 Photos app right now…thanks to all those #LiquidGlass menu overlays cluttering the view.

#Apple #LiquidAss #iOS

What also seems to have changed in #iOS26: switching tabs in #Safari by swiping up from the address bar now often sends me straight to the Home Screen instead of the tab overview. Either I suddenly lost motor control, or #Apple quietly changed the gesture tolerance. This never happened in previous #iOS versions. #LiquidGlass #LiquidAss

Another example of #Apple’s sloppy #LiquidGlass design in #iOS26: in the screenshot editor, the UI clearly wasn’t tested in landscape mode. The top buttons now stick directly to the screen edge without any margin. Visually off, ergonomically worse. Seems Apple only checked the portrait layout. #LiquidAss 👎

Another thing that bothers me in #iOS26 #LiquidGlass: the new text-selection menu. It used to be a neat scrollable list. Now it only shows three options, hiding the rest behind an arrow. One more tap for every edit, and to top it off, it’s inconsistent across apps. #Apple 👏

#LiquidAss

During all this #LiquidGlass frenzy, #Apple somehow forgot to port the feature where tapping the top bar in #Safari’s in-app browser scrolls to the top. Progress! 🙃

Yesterday evening I unceremoniously and sadly deleted, one by one, every app every photo every video and every document - all data from icloud - using a lovely pink iPad Mini.

The day before was the same, for several iphones, then a purged Apple Watch too. The laptops were before, long ago. My favorite was the 1Ghz Titanium G4 PowerBook - I'll always miss that perfection.

So, goodbye to modern Apple Inc. I loved your ways and means, your engineering prowess, industrial design, and the inspiration in every direction offered over so many decades.

I'm keeping the water-cooled Quad Core G5 PowerMac (PPC64 970MP A1177). You can attempt to pry it from my cold dead hands alongside a GP101... but please do not touch that one last, beautiful, and forever best example of IBM + Apple innovation - before Apple leadership sold out to Intel, pushed upon every emacs user the worthless Touchbar, and the scissor-chicklet keyboards with a lawsuit. But never forget Liquidass, crowning achievement and example of Apple's downfall.

How sad; sorry about your demise, Apple. I'll miss who you once were.

I made the stupid choice of updating my iOS device to liquid glass : the design looks childish and straight out of the nineties. There is stuff flickering everywhere. Sometimes it makes things completely unreadable.

Are there no decent UI/UX designers left at Apple?
