I respect Ive's design skills but I think that Ive leaving is one of the best things to happen to Apple in decades. They're slowly going from Ive's minimalist artistic designs back to useful computing devices and user interfaces.
Is this a subtle attack on USB-C?
But something also not frequently said: Apple had amazing designs (compared to the rest of the industry), for 2 decades before Ive started his thing. Heck, NeXT too.
Also, if I had to suffer yet another cookie-cutter Ive post-release video about a product, I'd kill myself...

This failure resulted in a support program that covered the entire output of the Apple MacBook Pro product line for half a decade.
Nothing subtle about that at all.
The list of trackers on that website is the largest Ive ever seen

With the speed of the M-series processors, and the fact that I can get one with ports and without an idiotic touchbar, I've started considering an Apple laptop for the first time in years.
I'm sure it's just a matter of time before the pendulum swings back again, alas.
From the outside, it seems like the poison of flat design only flourished when Jobs died. The beautiful, thoughtful, intuitive, accessible skeuomorphism was replaced with flat design only after Jobs wasn’t there. Was Jony only able to wrench away the beauty then? It seems like it. Humans live in a 3D world and take visual cues from things like lighting, gradients, shadows, materials and textures. Flat design strips t…
