Remember how much criticism Linux and other unixes got by people complaining about apps created with KDE on Gnome desktops and vice versa?

I'll never forget ;-)

And that’s a disaster too.

Really the only one that’s done it correctly is Apple.

Apple also did this whole "our apps are special" thing more than once.

I don't know why, but there's this weird temptation for every app to try to present itself as some kind of unique work of art, when it comes to UX. But I don't want art, and I don't want branding. I just want ergonomic tools - and part of ergonomics is not to have to re-learn everything every time you pick up a new thing.
