Two takes on macOS Tahoe icons

“I complained about this on the socials, but I didn’t get it all out of my system.” Jim Nielsen writes about icons in macOS Tahoe.

“It’s not that hard anymore to design better than Apple!” Nikita Prokopov does likewise.

  1. i noticed this yesterday while working on a document on my mac and wondered why there were so many. i also thought it was cluttering up the dropdown menus! i can barely figure out what emojis mean. and that they are so small -- everyone's vision changes over time!!!

  3. I think Apple's vision has changed greatly — and yes, that guy, whoever he is, has left for Meta.

    I hope the next version of the operating systems is much more appealing — I'm not planning to get OS 26 in any of its forms.
