I don't mind the liquid glass itself, but a lot of iOS and macOS seems badly designed when liquid glass is applied. Bright white default backgrounds with transparent panels on top featuring white titels. Misaligned screens for some reason. Unresponsive controls while they're animating. Safari introducing weird viewport bugs because it tries to be fancy with the address bar.

On iOS it feels unfinished, on macOS it feels unpolished. This has the potential to be pretty, or at least usable if you don't like the glass look, but someone needs to finish the process of porting to liquid glass.

On desktop? Doesn’t it make it harder to see? I used a phone with it recently and I wanted to turn it off immediately.

I also don’t get the hate. I personally prefer the older one but I also don’t see the big issue.

I have more a problem with the menu structure then the glass effect.

Me too. I honestly don’t understand why it provokes so strong reactions. In fact, I find all of the changes fairly minor. I expected something much more radical when Apple announced a major design overhaul. Things look slightly different, but work pretty much the same.
