I think it's nice as long as you have a custom ROM with root to tweak it. It's UNUSABLE on its default state.
But I still miss Holo and its mystique so much, it was perfect on small screens and needed some tweaking to be a mature, elegant, unique and expressive UI design language.
What changes do custom roms let you make?
True black background for OLED displays, AOSP Mods suite for 3 columns on quick settings, split WiFi/Data toggles, better scaling options for launchers, Lineage trebuchet launcher and derivatives, isolate apps like Google Calculator and Gboard off networking, theme engine tweaks for better generated colors and more.
Pretty much anything you can think about (even bringing back old QS or power menu). And if this isn't enough rooting enables you to make even bigger changes with apps such as Iconify or Substratum
I thought it looked really weird before I got to use it, and I still think that, now that both the apps I use, and my OS, have received the updated to M-You. I think it uses the available space horribly, and the color schemes it attempts to provide never feel like what I want
When MY first comes out everyone around seems to be a huge fan of it. I thought I was the one who got ancient tastes.
I'm not a fan of the huge padding or the "rounded edges" of it, much better during the KitKat days, in my opinion.
Absolutely like it. This design is very cool and has huge potential
I love it and I wish more apps used it, it's actually a really good design interface and android's bigger problem is design fracturing than any particular design paradigm being bad. So many iOS apps feel like part of the same platform, and so many reddit apps are still using fucking holo UI
I love it
