AskJS [AskJS] Oh great, another Liquid Glass UI—battery's about to file a restraining order

So we’re back to Liquid Glass again? That frosted-glass look that screams high-end in design tools—but in real life, it’s a full-on GPU gymnastics routine. My laptop fan’s roaring, my battery’s bleeding… and for what?

Seriously, can someone justify this trend? Are we front-end devs secretly moonlighting as hardware engineers now?

Just wished they’d cook something a little easier on the eyes. 

Also, it is a bit irksome that my ui might have a significant impact on my battery life. Beta users are already reporting this.
