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

    On the desktop, a lot of programs have been removing and hiding capabilities to look more like tablets and phones. This sucks, as I'm using a desktop which has the room to show all the fiddly bits.

        I use Gnome and IMO it uses the space pretty efficiently, especially because it puts a lot of stuff in the title bar and doesn't really leave unnecessary unused space

      I think this is because it’s more expensive and takes longer to build and maintain a desktop website, mobile website, and app.

      If you design everything to work on mobile, you can reuse it as the desktop site. You can most likely reuse assets in the app as well.

      Also, people are using their phones a lot more frequently than desktop/laptop, so mobile experience gets prioritized.
