Material design v1 is the reason we have extremely low information density and extreme whitespace everywhere.

Just compare the original Gmail UI to the one Google has now. Or original Adwords admin page to the one they launched 2-3 years ago. Its a regression in every possible way.

And apple is also not far behind in enshittyfying their UIs in order to merge the Desktop and the Smartphone paradigms into one.

This is the worst phase in UX/UI history we have ever witnessed.

Just to quote the article itself: Why did all these apps look so similar?

Because of material design already lol
