"Opening the world up" is them signalling that the rebrand is focused on accessibility and I feel like this point was lost on GP. That's all I'm addressing
If you wanna critique the design itself, I have nothing to say about that.
But, fwiw, you're the only one I've seen in this thread criticize that the new design is "bland" but you're entitled to that opinion. What decisions would you wish they'd made differently to make the new design less bland and confusing?
