@jame
If you make it a real application, it'd be even better!
Bloat frontend works fine in old Edge, but a dedicated app would be perfect 😄

@m0xee i have been getting the intrusive thought to buy a nokia lumia 520 and fool around with writing apps for it!! or perhaps the latest windows 10 mobile one would be more practical, but i love the look of 7/8 :drgn:

@jame Windows [Metro] 8 really was built different frfr

Unironically miss it

@LiquidParasyte it seems like a really intuitive design for phones/tablets just awful for traditional pc's. i love its use of color and especially the lowercase text for ui, that just screams early 2010s design to me lol

@jame @maddiefuzz dammit making me sad all over again that of all the companies to come up with WP 8 (or Windows 8 for that matter) why'd it have to be Microsoft?

Come up with an interesting idea. I guess even MS can do that sometimes.

Screw it up a little bit. Everyone does that, no big deal.

Back away so fast they leave skidmarks when people complained. MS and Google, neck and neck for this prize.

@randomgeek @jame I think we can all get behind forcing companies to finish what they start, if just for the schadenfreude. - an ex-Google Domains user

@maddiefuzz @jame there is a non-zero chance that my dying words will be something about still missing the Lumia 925.

@randomgeek @jame @maddiefuzz I liked Windows 8. It almost, almost convinced me that MS wasn't hot garbage as a company.

Boy did they soon set me straight.

@jame@wetdry.world honestly, nowadays i would prefer a windows phone like interface and design guideline for my mobile.

its simple and easy to understand.

@jame More like Windows Phone 7. Phone 8 IIRC ditched those huge and very elegant titles which wouldn’t fit.
