I’ll be the one to say it:

Liquid Glass is actually very good design that addresses design problems that persisted since the switch to touchscreens in a very comprehensive way.

More specifically, the problem of how to have universally recognizable and standardized UI controls in every app without interfering with their design identity.

To me it’s just a logical conclusion in the UI design field, and I fully expect Google and others to adopt something like it eventually.

The implementation isn’t flawless though.

I’d love if an actual UX designer could comment here.
