Are you guys tired of the “Material You” design? I don’t really like the huge paddings on everything aspect of it. Also a lot of it feels too flat. What do you guys think?

    The dynamic theming is a bit of a branding nightmare.

    Probably one of the reasons I like it. Big red company icon next to the big black company icon next to the big pink company icon. Nah, I’ll take the uniform design, please.

      But companies like to brand for, among others, usability and legal reasons. They aren’t going to participate in neutering the brand they have invested so much in. It doesn’t really matter if the user “likes” it because it’s pretty. What matters is if the companies pouring money into app development like it, and if the users can easily identify the apps they want to use. That’s why it has such low adoption.
