Yes, I am a dumb person obviously. Thanks for your invaluable input. Dude. But my use case is not to hide or remove digital exhaust. Creating habit of limited usage is more important and realistic. Funny part is that as a side-effect I do

Error? Seriously? Did you make a wrong assumption that I care? About karma? I share my experience and my point of view. Nothing more, nothing less. And the most important point is not technical. The most important point is personal habits.

Sorry, I misunderstand your question. I just don't like mobile games, and mobile banking is acceptable use case for me at the moment. But pc banking is obviously a better choice. The general idea of treating your phone as a problem has

Actually we are the weak point. The phone stuff is just unregulated capitalism.

Not the right logic here. Check your idea more seriously. Mac os is just an example.

Since Snowden I use my phone in minimalistic way. Phone calls. Minimal texting. No games. Banking apps if necessary. Treat your phones as an enemy. Use real computers with VPN and software like Little Snitch when online. Use cameras for pho

I have the same reaction towards Apple. After 20 years of using Apple Computers, the Catalina is the last one that I use. No more "vertical integration" for me. Any stable distribution with KDE on top will give me everything I ne

Valid arguments all around. Personally as a long time Apple user (20+ years) I have a plan to run some stable distribution with KDE on top. RawTherapee is capable enough. Coding for web is not a problem. Resolve is functional under Linux. V

Thats one of the reasons why I am quitting Figma. I like native app feeling and the "revolutionary" idea that my files are on my own computer. I don't use "templates", I don't follow design "trends"

Browser as an app has its use case: Collaboration. I will never trust third party (SaaS) completely. Period. I don't like Figma. I use it for remote work. And feel really uncomfortable, training some "automation" behind the

Value is personal first. Art is a way of reflecting the world and finding yourself. Value in the eyes of the masses has nothing to do with arts. Money, fame and success are not the motivational driver behind the process of artistic endeavou

May be you are right. My understanding of Jobs way of thinking is "product/user" first. In the context of a Desktop user interaction is not touch oriented. User interface must give options with minimal cognitive overload. Tra

Exclusive? May be useful for a starting point for someone. But not exclusive. On a first look, layouts and overall design feel is generic.

I was in shock, when realised that everything that I love about Mac Desktop since beginning of OSX era will be showed away in the name of vertical integration. Now I am ok. Catalina is the last Apple OS that I will run on my computers. Figm

I have a controversial theory. Foolish design is everywhere. Look at web trends. No underlined links, no clear button distinction, childish color schemes and rounded corners everywhere. Apple UI/UX design is trend setter. They try to b

The business model is obvious. Data. The new petrol. The use case is the question. The general trend against personal computing. The naïveté of todays startups and VC in general. But this is nothing new. It will pass, some people will get

Yes and no. The foundations of design are aesthetics and critical thinking. Every design has technical and functional specification. If one designs a car, one must know what is "packaging". If one designs for print, one must know

My personal opinion is that this is the result of "low quality" of design education. When you separate intellectual and practical processes you cannot crate meaning. Example of top of my head: Bauhaus revolution was possible becau

Example: This is a company with 13 million funding, without budget to spend on design: While the team is still less than ~20 ppl, we likely won't have a full-time designer. With the ubiquity of tools like Figma and design libraries lik
