I like flat design.

I feel like everyone here just prefers the design they grew up with.

Yeah, the 90s are in style right now. A few years ago, we were all cringing st the styles we wore/had in the 90s. Now it’s hip. In a few years, the early 2000s will be back in style, and everyone will think the 90s is tacky again.

Maybe that’s the point of the post. OP wants to know the average age of Lemmits

I'm a big fan of flat design, too. To be fair, I basically loved every style in its time. Regardless, I like flat.

I remember being stoked when IOS 7 came out because it looked so much better when the design was overhauled to be flat.

I personally don't like Aero too much. Win 7 looks decent but I prefer the look and simplicity in Windows 10.

Early flat design, around the WP7 era, was good. Modern flat design has a lot of wasted space and a lack of descriptive text :<
