so, believe it or not, i don't mind/like most of iOS 26's design! but one thing does keep getting me: constant HDR flashbangs. let me explain. the apple intelligence rainbow ring was their first (?) use of HDR UI; it drew brighter than your screen, and the vibrance was beautiful and subtle. but…

in “space oddity” i think he should cut out that weird little two-bar bridge, the one with the peppy guitar and the hand claps. i don’t know why that’s there and it’s like they accidentally started playing a simon and garfunkel song?? am i too late with this feedback

Playdate is the little yellow console with a crank—but no, the crank doesn't charge it. A crank-charged Playdate would be heavy, slow to recharge, and no fun to play. This sticker answers it once and for all. 📵 cottonbureau.com/p/CBBS9X

there’s a great article to be written somewhere about our patches system, and the happiness loop it creates. it brings great joy to us every single day!!!

BREAKING NEWS: we are keeping the Plus in Blippo+

here in portland there used to be a surplus store called wacky willy’s (RIP) and it had a wall, a huge wall, of floor to ceiling teddy ruxpin in-store displays for sale, teddy and grubby in a plastic bubble. hundreds of them. i think about this weirdly often.
