Are you guys tired of the “Material You” design? I don’t really like the huge paddings on everything aspect of it. Also a lot of it feels too flat. What do you guys think?

    While you’re here, I’m curious about your opinion on the latest Spotify client design. It feels like they want to bring the desktop design closer to the touch screen client (maybe to reduce the codebase not shared by the projects). Personally, having grown up with Winamp, I find it very uncomfortable how images are dominant in both list and grid views, and how much space is left (really wasted) around texts. I think it’s just a very inefficient interface with way too much useless visual fluff.

    (the application on the left is a terminal-based client that really only needs a tiny corner on the screen)

      Spotify couldn’t care less about power users, and that’s about all there’s is to say about that. Sucks when the tools and the services are linked, so you can’t choose a tool to use with a certain service. Kinda the reason most of us are now on Lemmy, I guess.

      Not who you’re replying to, but I don’t like the giant album art menus. Save that for a now playing screen that should still be able to be shrunk down.
