You, as a developer, make a user interface, not a piece of art.

I’m a user. Why do you assume I’m a dev?

I’m going to assume this is Meta’s usual level of negligent greed, and there’s a decent chance that no human was involved. YouTube actually did something very similar.

I’m going to provide the counter opinion here: I prefer CSD. SSD gives you a consistent title bar across applications, but it can cause a wildly inconsistent look within a single app. Part of the application is being themed by a different piece of software that doesn’t know anything about it.

I also like apps being able to make use of some of the extra space in the titlebar if they want to.

I love Ze Frank, but this isn’t really a meme.

This is something I think a lot of people don’t realize; It’s a cascading failure. It’s not just that some competent people will leave the country. The rest of their teams will have to bear the extra burden and be demoralized. They will then feel compelled to leave as well.

It’s happened numerous times in both the public and private sectors. Now they’re deliberately trying to do this shit on a national scale. If we ever recover from this, it’s going to take decades…
