Google bragging about design is like the nazis bragging about human rights

  Don't be so hard on them, they've done a fantastic job. Material design is a purely graphic framework, not a way to decide which feature is going where (which googles still desesperately sucks at). The guys that created material design should be put in charge much more, because they're obviously the only one that have a true vision for that company. To me, that reflection should have been made on the very first iteration of android. Much like microsoft went with tiles, and ios initialy went with skueumorphics ui.

    > Material design is a purely graphic framework, Exactly! And, as such, they should advertise it as it is. Merely graphical stuff, not an UI revolution, not better usability nor UX (where are the tests saying so?). I wish they just admit that they're trying to make something which looks cool (nothing wrong with that), not necessarily better UX-wise.

  Well, it's more popular than Rust will even be.
