Remember when Google hired brilliant, talented engineers to build quality products?

Those were the days.

Was that ever a thing? The original Gmail design was pretty terrible. Then when they overhauled the design, and unified it with other Google product designs there was uproar. People rarely seem satisfied with UI design

Yeah because they didn't hire designers. Just engineers.

Most engineers think that something is extravagant if it contains colours other than grey and dull blue. Also what even is tab indexing?
