New blog post! A close look at Tahoe menu icons. With 109 illustrations! https://tonsky.me/blog/tahoe-icons/
Excellent article.
Sounds like they made an icon font and let programmers choose their own icons on a deadline.
No way a designer worth his salt has designed that garbage.
Last time I checked a Mac I hated the UX. It seems it has gotten much worse.
Any non-fringe OS makes this better than Apple's.
I guess they have silently deprecated their desktop OS, in order to replace it with iOS.
(They are making iOS right, aren't they?).
Who knows. I took 15 years for Microsoft to port Visual Studio to 64 bits. XCode seems simpler (not so much legacy, for starters). So maybe in a decade. It shouldn't be impossible; Android has been having complete third party Android IDE apps for more than a decade.
Of course, they can always port XCode to Linux. It would probably be easier.
They won't, of course.
They are more likely to make a compatibility layer for "legacy" MacOS apps and remove it as soon as they can get away with it.
@jgg yes, but the interesting question is: with macOS gone or forgotten, how to they think people will make iOS apps?
