Then how would you know how good or bad Apples software UI/UX is if you have only one frame of reference? It's good or bad compared to what?
I don't think you can easily make that claim.
- linguae 6y agoI’m not exclusively a Mac user. In the past 30 years I’ve also used MS-DOS, every version of Windows since 95 (except for Me and server-based versions like 2003 and 2008), various Linux desktops, Android, ChromeOS, and iOS. I’ve even played around with NeXTstep, Haiku, Pharo, and Plan 9. The classic Mac OS and pre-Big Sur macOS were the best environments I’ve used from a UI/UX perspective, with Windows 95/98/NT/2000 being worthy runners up.
