I think I hate it mostly because 1) it needlessly ruins a good thing, 2) of the general implications of "we are changing something fundamental like a rectangle, and make it standard, and you can't do anything about it".
And also the general corporatisation of design. Everything has to be lifeless and smooth and just enough friendly and appealing to everyone. So what we get? A mix between a circle and rectangle. My artsy soul is crying.
So, it's dumb and pointless, it ruins a good thing, it offends me, I hate it, and yet I'm somehow supposed to accept it as the new standard? Fucking 1984 this is.
I don't know if this is satire or serious.
Of serious, I envy your life. I wish my lifewas privileged enough that I could focus on hating rounded corners as much as you. Lol
Are you on the internet? Then you are probably not a starving child in some Somalian village. You privilege.
Clearly not as privileged as you lol
Maybe I'm not such a twat so people like me more and I can afford it. You should try it.
LOL. Compares round corners to 1984 and then claims to not be a twat. Maybe get out of your moms basement for once and go face the real world.
