Mac users have hijacked the ui design in the company. They have absolute control. This is why windows 10 uwp ui sucks so much and is so out of culture with windows users.
There is a Microsoft vp who did a post on this and how he must retrain new designers on why most of their impulses won't work.
- uxcolumbo 4y agoI'm a designer and use Windows. Not a big fan of designers who ram their idea of what good design is down our throats. You as a designer have to think about your existing user base and keep in mind how they work, their muscle memory and not taking away power user features etc. Either they only tested with new users or somehow think that legacy users will die out soon - so let's copy MacOS because that's what all users like apparently. But maybe the designers did raise these concerns about alienating existing users, but their warnings were ignored by the C-Suite. Hopefully more Windows apps will be supported by Linux via Wine or maybe what Valve are doing to support games will also support other Windows apps? Haven't looked into it yet.
