What UI design trend do you hate the most? (lemmy.ml)

I personally hate rounded corners and shadows added everywhere. Makes most things look crappy and smudged.

Counterpoint: I think this gets a bad rep because people overdo it. Personally, I think #000000 black text on white to be... Glaring? Like the stark contrast is hurting my eyes. Going for e. G. #444444 solves this while not sacrificing legibility. But then you get fancy #999999 super thin script on white and I'm right there with you.

Do you even find it glaring/like it's hurting your eyes when you're outside or in a very well lit room? Because I'm under the impression that his trend mostly comes from people using their devices in dimly lit areas. #444 does sacrifice some legibility, imho. It's not terrible, but I still much prefer pitch black.
