Yes, but sometimes it’s designers masturbating over their own genius. Like why does UI have to be so flattened that it’s confusing to determine what is interactive and what isn’t (among other issues)?

Lol as someone who does mostly UI dev and works w/ designers daily, this one hits home. Some of em really get it. And when they do it right, it can be amazing. Others… Not so much. Minimalism in UI should emphasize simplicity and ease of access, but like anything else, people go overboard and bring the worst out of it.
