And look terrible on all platforms while at it. Yes, a much better solution indeed. This is not to say Apple UI is good or bad. This has nothing to do with it.

And look terrible on all platforms while at it. Yes, a much better solution indeed. This is not to say Apple UI is good or bad. This has nothing to do with it. Users expect native look and feel from apps. I assume you are a Linux user, where there is almost no consistency to software (outside of teams purposefully designing software to look consistent, such as Elementary OS), but this is not how it is on Windows and Apple operating systems, and for the most part on Android. If you don't like the ecosystem, that's fine - don't develop for it, but don't dismiss something that users expect from this ecosystem.
