I never used Windows Vista, but now that that look is back and I'm forced to use mac, I feel like I dodged a bullet and it ricoched back right in my eyes.

Yeah. I've been using Macs since System 6 and while I've often disagreed with Apple's direction, this is the first one that feels downright incompetent, in much the same way as Microsoft's Vista and Windows 8 designs were.

There's no consistency between how things look and how they behave. There is useless clutter everywhere. Legibility of text is an afterthought. It's like they forgot the distinction between graphic design and UI design.

But it looks pretty at a glance, so.......great......

I’m having a hard time understanding where this is coming from.

Vista was hated for a lot of reasons, but visual design wasn’t one of them. If anything it was one of the few things it got right, and why Windows 7 built upon it.

Yeah, that’s the same feeling I have. In the past it was “I don’t like it but can get used to it”, now it’s so bad it’s borderline unusable.
