skeuo, webOS, KDE
Nov. 29th, 2025 01:01 pmskeuomorpism! digital interfaces that are stylized to look like the analog and physical version of the object they replace!
the ios <7 calendar app. its red ticker at the top, think of it and then think of a physical calendar.
i want to make all of my devices skeuomorphic. frutiger aero is similar, and i want to incorporate glossiness and transparency, but not too vibrant. i want iOS 6, not Windows XP.
webOS. i am a bit tuckered out on writing about all of the cool shit the webOS revival project is doing, which frustrates me. i am so geeked out about its existence, and i write about all they do, and now i just cant write about its features any more. i am broken free of being a walking advertisement, or so. they make no money from it anyway. but go look at it! webOS revival! guhhhh!
but back to stylization. the KDE store (not a store) only has flat shit on there. it makes me mad. i want unique stuff and its all the damn same!! add skeuomorphism! the best icon set i could find was a KDE 3 one and it has so many missing icons and it makes me so sad! KDE designers! get your shit together!! make aero!! make skeuo!! please!!!!!
right now writing feels like a slog. its hard to write my thoughts despite how easy it is usually.
i feel nostalgic, but a good nostalgia. liquid glass for OS X is kicking off, we're coming back to aero. i feel good. but we aren't fully there yet, and everything is so flat and bland still. get it on with! get it aero! i want my tech to be beautiful again!
thats all. :'-(
