I despise SF Symbols. Cheap, lame, boring, flat little hieroglyphics do not make good icons. They're just cheap.

- stefanfisk 10mo agoIf rather have a boring but consistent and usable UI than something jazzy but inconsistent and broken. Every app should not be its own little universe as if it was a videogame.
- wpm 10mo ago"Usable" being the key word. 12 or 14 pixel square hieroglyphics are not good icons, end of story.
- stefanfisk 10mo agoSF Symbols is not a bitmap font.
- pornel 10mo agoBut as the article shows - you don't even get consistency, since different apps pick different SF symbols for the same thing. It's just uniformity that failed to bring real user interface consistency.
