Drew NaylorMetro (and Windows Phone) is never going to return on a corporate scale the same way it was a decade ago if it ever did return because that's just how publicly-traded companies work. They have to change things and nothing can repeat exactly as it ever was before after too many years, even if it means it's for the worse. They have to keep those investors happy with shiny new stuff that may not even be good but works if you're big enough. It just has to be new.<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WindowsPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WindowsPhone</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroUI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MetroUI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MetroDesign</a>

Miss Rari 🏳️‍⚧️You know, I wonder... if you like Metro UI/Metro Design/Windows Phone stuff a lot, are you also trans? I ask because I tend to read more stuff about this from trans posters and wondered if it was my imagination or not.<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WindowsPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WindowsPhone</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/trans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#trans</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MetroDesign</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroUI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MetroUI</a>

Drew NaylorMe liking <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Android</a> seems like blasphemy, but those two versions weren't bad and I liked the appearance of the Holo theme in 4.x and wish it stayed an option even though I never used it (makes sense, I enjoy <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Metro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Metro</a>). 2/2<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MetroDesign</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroUI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MetroUI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WindowsPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WindowsPhone</a> (because Metro)

Drew NaylorI have modified the "Universal" <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/QtQuick" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#QtQuick</a> style's toggle switches to be more like Metro and they look just about perfect (need to tweak it a bit, mostly for spacing and text position/capitalization/size), down to smoothly filling the space when the handle slides over. Here's the current start+theme page in my Settings app, by the way. I don't think I've shown it before.<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Retiled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Retiled</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/RetiledSettings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RetiledSettings</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MetroDesign</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroUI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MetroUI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Metro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Metro</a>
