    It might feel busy for some but that’s because you see it for the first time. When it’s on your phone, you see it like 50 times a day you realize that you got so much information at a glance.

    Or maybe you need to be an old WP user to appreciate it 😁

      I still miss my 920 and 950xl. If they made a modern WP again, I’d switch back in a heartbeat.

      Looks great! Makes me want to reinstall the launcher I used before switching to Pixel

        I prefer the gestures and UI of the stock YouTube app, so having a patched app is the best of both worlds.

        I use Libreube but I can understand that people would rather use a stock YouTube patch. You can’t like or comment on anything that doesn’t require a YouTube account for example and I get why that’d be a deal-breaker for some.

        I tried Newpipe but I honestly didnt get on with it, I’m much too used to the stock UI of YouTube, I also like having an account that let’s me interact with others (commenting, liking etc). Plus Revanced has native Sponcerblock and RYD support. At the end of the day its to each of their own, but I much prefer it over the others.

      Revanced had a lot of ads so I deleted it. This is also a new or continued YouTube vanced by someone else

        What do you mean ads lol, there are no ads. You probably did something wrong or got it from the wrong source. I’m not sure there’s any credible Vanced source right now, revanced is probably your best bet

          There was an adblocker in videos yes, but on homescreen there were ads in between scrolling. And it had other issues like video infinite buffering etc

            Oh. I’ve never seen any ads while scrolling. The buffering does happen to me sometimes though, and it is annoying.

      For sure, with my eyes closed. My 520 and 720 were by far the most aesthetically pleasing phones I’ve ever used.

        I had the 925, it was reall nice, the screen aspect ratio was great, the phone felt premium, camera was good. It got a bit sluggish towards the end, but Android phones at the time did as well. I wasn’t a fan of WP10 though, so if they released a new WP today who knows what kind of experience it would actually have, probably something in-between WP10 and Android.

    Windows Phone had a gorgeous UI, especially on OLED devices. Your colours are a little off and the gaps could be a bit bigger, but it still looks quite nice. I don’t know how much of this is tweakable though. Did you make this yourself? Or which launcher are you using?

      It was pretty awesome man. Especially the native apps and the consistency in UI between apps. Android only NOW has introduced something similar with material you. It was ahead of it’s time

        It was ahead in many ways. Iirc, windows was the first phone OS to include in built swipe typing.

    I loved my windows phone, everything was neatly organized and insane good muscle memory, I don’t know if it is my nostalgia or if it genuinely is a good as I remember
