Nowadays we're getting weird trend to either monochromatize or outright abstract icons that can't be easily associated with a thing. When we had 256 colors and tiny amount of pixels developers used every single one of them, now we have millions and get colorful squares
- ajsnigrutin 4y agoYep... This picture says it all: https://i.imgur.com/jaXMYHr.png https://i.imgur.com/jaXMYHr.png I also hate the minimalism of small greyish singe-color outline icons, where everything looks the same, and you don't know what it does... a grey square? A stop button? Oh no, it shows the list of already open apps... circle with an outline? Yep, everybody thinks "home" (button) when they see a circle... etc.
