@phlip lol I remember there was a meme that was like “someone leaked the source code for windows 11” and it’s just border-radius
in retrospect that was kinda unfair to Microsoft, they added a bunch of telemetry and spying stuff too@xeno @phlip and more #Govware #Backdoors…

Gotta hit the vibes that we are making stuff with AI slop

@phlip are border-radius trends following the baggy/tight pants trends ?

I'm glad they're all doing that.
I hurt myself on those sharp edges so many times. /jk -
"But phlip", I hear you ask, "surely if you increase the border radius so far that the rectangles are now capsules, you've increased them as far as they'll go! How can we further modernise in the future if we're already at maximum innovation?"
Ah, ye of little faith. Observe, the future UI uplift of 2029:
@phlip next step: replace text with hieroglyphs

@phlip if you have Stylus installed in firefox(-like) you can just * {border-radius: 0;} and it looks fine lol

@phlip Qutebrowser is my friend

@phlip That's a sausage I don't want to know how it got made. But... it's "AI", isn't it?

@phlip Actually, those corners are too round. Our latest modernization involved less rounded corners.

@phlip I've seen the future, friend, and it's squircles and rectarcles alllll the way down

@phlip Oh no, I'm going to have to tell my partner that the carefully designed round corners on her 10+ year old fully hand-coded personal website are now a indicator of AI. She's already cross enough about em dash appropriation.

@phlip You forgot transparency and blurring effects.
Adding transparency and blurring effects makes everything professional, right?

@RainbowFrog @phlip Until they don't anymore in a future update. These things are always going to end up with people being forced to make the switch eventually. They don't take negative feedback serious.

@phlip I can imagine some designers will purposely make their UIs spikier instead of rounder to protest this.
UI Kiki vs. UI Bouba.
