Wish they'd make some of the classic OS X. I missed the skeumorphism.
Peak beauty! I hope one day Apple returns to this design language even as a theme:

The Aqua theme and and how it visually bridged hardware and UI was huge at the time. It influenced industrial design for other companies for years. It was the look of the late 90's early 2000's. Personally I was over it, and happy for the more subtle flatter look, but definitelty have fond memories!

Man, I wish so bad we could get WindowShades back from the classic Mac OS days. The ability to roll up your application into the title bar was just amazing and so useful. Still sad they removed it and any third party options are really janky.

But hey, Stage Manager is really useful, right? Right?


(TBF I kid - I do use Stage Manager, but it’s not nearly as handy as WindowShades were)
