    I don’t use them neither anymore. They were alright 5 years ago but they are like a time capsule. They work as intended but aren’t modern.

      The lack of a dogshit “modern” UI makes them even better. I don’t need a loading screen morphing into different rounded polygons like I’m a toddler having keys waggled in front of my face for three seconds of loading.

        I don’t even think they’re right, Fossify apps do actually use Material 3/You which has all that dumb stuff. Though they seem to be implementing it in a way that doesn’t feel as bloated yet empty as other Material 3 apps.

        Yes! Give me boring UI please. I don’t want rounded corners or modern crap. I’m annoyed by the new Firefox UI.

        Even when it’s really just about the UI but sometimes I feel like stuff gets more bloated when it’s “modern”.

            I have it but don’t use it enough, not as default. I hadn’t checked if it has the new UI, thanks, Might have to switch default browser.
