Edit: Looks like you can opt-out of that "new look and feel" pretty easily under the appearance settings but still, whats with putting rounded corners everywhere?

Edit 2: "Explore the web with a softer, more friendly aesthetic featuring rounded corners [..] Designed to complement your operating system, whether on Windows 11, MacOS, or Linux." The fuck does that mean? Windows 11 fair enough but most Linux distros don't look like that at all.

Uh, I use Gnome and rounded corners are all around the gnome apps I use. I wouldn't use Edge, but I'd like to see Chrome have this.

The real mildlyinfuriating part is that they probably got inspired by Arc, a relatively new browser. They already copied how their window splitting works.

Pretty crappy for MS not to have good designers themselves and then copy (often poorly) what one of the small players is doing.

Have you ever looked at MS’s business plan over their lifetime? This is nothing new.

Rounded edges have been a trend in UX design for a while now. It's not really a concept that they need to have stolen from anyone else.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

I blame Apple for that trend.

It's like 20 years on and the rest of the world is still trying to ape it.

The rounded corners part of Web 2.0 was honestly the worst.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Edge is copying a lot of stuff from the yet-to-be-released-on-Windows arc browser. This is one of them. They seem to have not added the other stuff that interfaces with it like the one window split screen.

Nice security feature, you don't know how many people get hurt by those angular corners.

Rounded is the new thing? Aren't YouTube videos also rounded now

I actually like it tbh

Oh god, this is going to be the next must-have design for everything, isn't it? Argh.

It has been for a very long time. It really ramped up when border-radius came to CSS, maybe around 15 years ago now. Every site started using rounded corners as it was much easier than the old approach of using images for it. Then apps started copying it, and now everything has rounded corners.

I remember a version of Chrome in the early days where I feel like they finally got the UI perfect. Of course, it's been changed a hundred times since then. Can't developers just leave well enough alone?

Edit: Within a day of posting this, I started getting pop-ups in Chrome saying something to the effect of "You can change the appearance of Chrome". I changed it alright. I'm using Firefox now.

Here’s is something I don’t see a lot of people mention. Around the release of Pixel 3XL, Google kinda updated lot of their designs to make that hideous notch look intentional. Chrome Tab Headers were changed too. They got bigger with a lot more padding and rounded to look like the “notch”. They got rid of the notch in their phones, but the chrome tab header design somehow stuck
