Why did UI’s turn from practical to form over function?
E.g. Office 2003 vs Microsoft 365

Seriously? Big ribbon and massive padding wasting space, as well as the ribbon being clunky to use.
Why did this happen?

That’s actually amazing! Maybe I should start ranting about stuff that annoys me in software I love. Wouldn’t mind being lead dev on something I’m an active user of.
