Hot take, but the original GBA had one of the nicest reflective LCDs ever. I'd even prefer it over the SP in most (well lit) cases.
Thank you for the spoiler tag, that was pretty NSFL
I made this meme a while back and I think it's relevant
Ah. Seems like the effect varies from person to person I guess. Are there any studies on it? I'm kinda interested now.
What the fuck did you do to your text? It's impossible to read.
They do already prevent fake links. Their markdown doesn't work if you have the http scheme in the url, which is why the link in the thumbnail says steamcommunity.com instead of https://steamcommunity.com
The burger is fine, but the sides are usually amazing.
Yes. I understand that and I'm well aware of what you're describing, that is why I said I try not to let my nostalgia get the better of me.
I'm saying I enjoy this aesthetic mainly for nostalgic reasons. I am not necessarily saying this is superior to current aesthetics. I do miss this era, yes, and you are correct that is more about me than the aesthetic itself.
That doesn't mean this isn't beautiful or pleasant in some way, and I don't think it's wrong to enjoy or explore older aesthetics even if it's out of nostalgia.
I realize the way my comment was worded made it seem like a comment about the era rather than the aesthetic.
Edit: contradicted myself there. Sorry, it's kinda hard to get a consistent thought out on mobile.
I grew up with XP as well, and while I'm still nostalgic for it, it just feels kinda flat compared to the vista/7 aero theme. Not really boring, but not as interesting as aero imo. Still a vibe though.
I try not to let my nostalgia get the better of me, but god damn I really miss when everything looked like this.
