NeXT was the most beautiful UI ever made. We really peaked.

@rk @joe
Look at those thicc scroll bars and shaded buttons!
I'm getting older and they're making all the interfaces more flat and low contrast at the same time, it's annoying.

@joe I never had the pleasure of running NeXTStep, but I used AfterStep as the UI for mklinux.

@joe @dluz I remember when scroll bars weren't trying to play hide and seek all the time

@joe if you pull too far your computer turns into a terminal and there is no slider in the terminal, so be cautious.

@joe Paging @shayman to remind us who wrote NeXT's "Open Sesame" app.

@cliffb_infosec @joe IMO, CDE aesthetic is very good. I'm tempted to make a website in this vibe

@joe I want someone to write a framework with a slider that really does that, dynamically changing the whole look-and-feel of your app to match predecessors of the current macOS. Why hasn't someone done this already and made it open-source and free for me to use? Is everybody lazy or something?
