An accessibility nightmare, and there's not enough Copilot in it

[u/Alucard0_0420 → u/asamson23]

yes! i want moar slop

[u/Specific-Animal6570]

One UI?

[u/LukasTheHunter22 → u/Specific-Animal6570]

How?

[u/Specific-Animal6570 → u/LukasTheHunter22]

The battery icon.

[u/L30N1337]

This isn't great.

I love the idea. I personally use a translucent+rounded theme.

this is not good. imagine someone has a white spreadsheet open, which is filled with text.

that text in the start menu would be basically unreadable.

And that's just the most obvious example i can think of. this would get crushed by anything white with black text. and white alone would make it difficult to read.

Blur is mandatory.

[u/J3ttf]

I love it!

[u/csch1992]

What a mess

[u/MinimumCharity3126]

liquid glass? more like liquid ass

[u/L30N1337 → u/MinimumCharity3126]

brother.

this is just transparency.

Liquid Glass needs refraction.

[u/-_nightmarionne_- → u/L30N1337]

Exactly this, and, what's wrong with liquid glass anyway? It CANNOT be that bad

[u/L30N1337 → u/-_nightmarionne_-]

conceptually?

nothing.

in practice? Apple, the "good design" company, sucks at design nowadays.

[u/CjkittyofficialYT → u/-_nightmarionne_-]

its worse in early ios 26

[u/Aqil_09 → u/MinimumCharity3126]

[u/CharmingResort885]

Missing copilot everywhere in the UI

[u/Brilliant-Natural949 → u/CharmingResort885]

Is this a joke or not😔

[u/Ok-Hotel-8551]

[u/SwissBall0]

Love the wallpaper! Link pls?

[u/Brilliant-Natural949 → u/SwissBall0]

That is a photo from the Windows Spotlight theme, it's called "Under Alpine skies".

[u/ProXTech_real]

I personally too think Microsoft would follow apple and add some kinda liquid glass equivalent, Unpopular opinion but i really like liquid glass dont know why ppl hate it but it looks beautiful and reminds me of aero and aqua.

[u/5h10]

You made this in figma? As much as this is a usability nightmare, its pretty design I'll give you that

[u/vdthanh]

much better than windows 11

[u/Novotus_Ketevor]

I love the enthusiasm, but it kinda looks like Windows Vista and Windows 11 had a baby and it's an abomination.

[u/ky7969]

Looks like riced KDE

[u/Gokudomatic]

It looks like seven but with more widgets that consume precious memory and CPU resources.

[u/stgm_at]

so this aurora (?) widget is just there to waste space or does it serve a purpose?

[u/Brilliant-Natural949 → u/stgm_at]

That is the photo widget

[u/King-in-Council]

Microsoft should rip off Snow Leopard. The light dynamics of the UI, shadows, dark metal/plastic windows and skumorphic. Merge Windows XP and Snow Leopard. 

[u/Moist_Inspection_485]

It needs more windows 7 ish icons (not the exact ones but inspire by that)
Way more 3D effects, and a more glassy blur behind the transparent windows with the close button glowing, then it will be decent

[u/rifarizqul]

feels like a watered-down version of liquid glass lol. appreciate the effort though

[u/ItzDarc → u/rifarizqul]

which itself was a better more modern version of Aero

[u/kuronekolover1]

windows 11 x macos tahoe 🤔

[u/Finn_on_reddit]

There should be a big input field for Copilot. And I bet that AI will tailor the desktop layout and style for each user.

[u/orukadhasollatasir]

Vista ❤️

[u/aniel300]

looks clean, i like it

[u/KaiProton]

Didn't they try all that translucent bs apps invading the desk top break in vista

[u/jakebuttyy]

This is just windows 10.7

[u/Fun_Helicopter8980]

Crap. It's almost identical to Windows 11. And it even has rounded corners.

[u/Danzikku → u/Fun_Helicopter8980]

Rounded corners aren't that bad TBH, but it would be cool to be able to disable them.

[u/Fun_Helicopter8980 → u/Danzikku]

You just can't imagine how much I can't stand them.

[u/Savings_Art5944]

Widgets go on the right.

[u/Brilliant-Natural949 → u/Savings_Art5944]

You can move them anywhere you want; they're not fixed in one place.

[u/ILovePotassium]

I hate it but it's way better than whatever Microsoft will come up with.

[u/-_nightmarionne_- → u/ILovePotassium]

???

Wym? It's even got frutiger aero

[u/Moist_Inspection_485 → u/-_nightmarionne_-]

No it’s not, it’s just tranclucebt windows

[u/Purple_Priority2296]

i like it :)

[u/NeitherDatabase7697]

you just added round corners to everything. unfortunately i hate it, at least windows 10 has normal corners

[u/RecordOk6491]

Windows Vista 12?
