    it also makes Discord no different from any other app.

    Seems to be the consistent theme now. Legitimately, no app seems to want to have its own visual identity anymore, it’s all the same shit, in white or black, with the same floating squircles, wasted screen space, laid out in a manner that provides less information. It’s depressingly lifeless and Corporate Memphis levels of inauthentic. The result of a CEO saying “do an Apple” to the UX team, because they gotta hook that young demo, rather than do anything original, identifiable, or interesting.

    And they certainly aren’t about to spend any amount of time appealing to tech literate power users, or (god forbid) people who like to customize their own UIs.
