Absolutely agree, I use to get excited for new updates to anything, cuz like "yay new things" or "old things but less buggy"
But recently I've been absolutely sulking over the modern software updating paradigm of shipping perfectly fine updates with completely useless UI changes that absolutely nobody wanted so tech companies can justify having an in-house UI team
Like my phone, on Android 11 I set the custom color to a really nice red color, i matched it to my wallpaper and everything, I loved it
And then Android 12 hits, and that lovely red gets replaced with some bologna enthusiast's spamcore aesthetic
I'm sorry, Material "You"?. Nah this is Material Somebody Else fr
And I can't do anything to change the colors of my own phone
I hate being a slave to UI teams, let me change the colors atleast, damnit
I am so close to just rooting my phone ngl
