The UI shitshow today is unbelievable. Low contrast being the "cool" thing. I have great Vision and find it frustrating - I can only imagine what it's like for people with vision issues.

Not just that, also weak accents, blur, gradients, ugly squares, mixing low contrast and high contrast, idiotic layouts, inconsistent and illogical feedback.

Basically there's no UI design today.
