Like: context menus make use of the screen real estate, instead of a single line with multiple > clicks
Dislike: a Lock Screen that doesn't just stay how I set it up/unnecessary/gimmicky changes. Who wants a clock that is stretched to half the length of the screen?
Pending: Going to rely a lot on beta user reviews this year, I feel.
 
Apple Glass, from the same people that brought you the amazing Apple Intelligence and Genmoji...

This is more readable, to be honest.
 
Absolutely hideous. From looking at their YouTube video it seems like it's going to be hard finding the right icons. I cna imagine older people and people with vision issues will find this change really difficult and will have trouble using the phone. Completely unnecessary change just for the change sake.
 
Couple of people asking if banking apps are working, I’ve checked HSBC Business and personal and both totally fine. Phone was super slow after restart but it seems to be back to usual.
 
What I find amusing is that the shift in iOS 7 from 6 was nearly universally hated. It took them 5-6 years to start going backwards, for their own betterment. iOS 13 and on has been largely improving.

So what do they do? They go right back to dropping another iOS 7… but not in the way they think.

I guess nothing lasts forever. Just comical to see everyone keep making the same mistakes every decade. Is it the water? Something in the water? It’s the water right? Do they test the water?

Fluoride is a neurotoxin so... I guess it's better than iOS 7 so there's that. Plus no one has really used it yet. Could be better than it looks!
 
You apparently missed the Usenet flamewars of the 90s.

Even before that. I first heard of these things back in about 1982, and I was hardly on the cutting edge of things. I'm sure it all began before then.
