material design needs to GO

...

Confirmed for not being a production developer.
Material design is a godsend. It lets devs focus on functionality rather than UI layout. Just follow the material design guidelines and it's done.

That's not material design

There's nothing wrong with AERO

Vista is probably the best designed operating system in terms of visual quality

*quantity

Besides the fact that it's pointless, resource intensive and looks like ass?

What I really like about Vista is the taskbar. It just looks so fucking good compared to the one in Windows 7

Material design is shit. You need to follow that awful guide in order to make your app look "modern" and more appealing to users, leaving aside functionality.

>resource intensive
why are you still using a $400 Windows Vista machine?

Follow the guidelines and you application won't break if changes are made upstream. And you don't end up with shit like Microsoft having to include fixes in Windows for a specific popular application because it's developer didn't follow the guidelines or used undocumented calls.

>resource intensive
A goddamn intel GMA 950 can handle it fine, and you win basicaly no performance by making the windows non-transparent
And don't tell us that win8/10 look better

that's because the vista one is a taskbar while the one in 7 is only "good" in huge dock mode

It looks clean as fuck to me, I miss it

>functionality
Since when is wasting space "functional"?

Didn't we have Japanese web design thread just recently?
You want screen filled with trash? Because that's what it's gonna be most cases.
Clearly you don't understand what you're talking about

this shit blew my mind, so nice

of course, being a resource Jew I used the old fashioned way

>resource intensive
Then use Windows XP, idiot. And if you care about not wasting resources don't ever buy a 1080p+ monitor because it's also an unnecessary waste.
>pointless
A lot of people like it.

We did.
