i mean yes, but this is a more dynamic transperency that reacts more to backgrounds, merging/separating with other elements, etc.

    I mean... look, I'm genuinely not trying to be a sour asshole, but why did we need this? How is this furthering the development of smartphone tech? It's, like... sure, pretty graphics are nice, but do we really need ray-tracing on our phones? (I know it's not ray-tracing, but you get my point)

    I don't actually like this redesign tbh, but come on, people do care about design and UX.

    Nobody said we need pretty UX design, it's just nice to have, and that's fine. Not everything needs to be furthering the development of XYZ. Beauty is fine, aesthetics is fine, art is fine.

    But yeah, I don't have an Apple device and likely never will, so this specific instance doesn't matter to me.
