So I switched to a pixel 7 from an iphone 10 xs a few months back, and I’ve absolutely loved it in comparison to the locked down nature of an iphone. So I think to look up material you on YouTube for fun, and decide to read the comments and found that people hated it. Quick googling led to me to find two reddit threads and an article talking about how much they hated it. Personally, I don’t understand the hate, as you can simply choose to have the color be a dullish blue manually.
Idk, it might just be that I haven’t been using android long to care about the fact that material you is being forced.
who’s changing it every year? Material design is from 2014 and it was updated in 2018
Material You is not Material Design.
it’s the successor. It changed twice in nearly 10 years
It’s dramatically different in every possible way other than the name. Successor or not, similar name or not, it’s a different design language.
And even with that, it changed dramatically in Android 14 from how it was in Android 13. I’m so sick of updating my phone and it looks different. I don’t want to re-learn how to use my phone every year. Just leave it the same.
