Here's a thread I'm sure John Titor will agree with me on. After all the futuristic neon and colorful meme aesthetics of the early 2010s went away, we were left with something far blander, an era defined heavily by flat design and minimalism. And unlike in the late 90s/early 00s, or even the late 2010s, it was incredibly bland-looking to be sure. The aesthetic of the mid 2010s was heavily text-oriented, with ultra-thin fonts defining the era. In addition, gradients were unpopular, very much unlike the late 2010s. Instead, flat colors defined everything. The era was possibly the boxiest aesthetically since the 1980s, with rectangular apartments and smartphones defining the era. Windows 8's aesthetic is a perfect embodiment of the mid 2010s, defined heavily by flat colors and rectangles. I know there's people out there like 10slover who like this particular aesthetic, but I just find it to be a downgrade compared to anything we had in the 2000s or even early 2010s. The late 2010s, whilst not perfect, did at least have more personality to it.

I love this aesthetic yes, and i think this will be the 10s aesthetic that will get the most love in the future simply because it's so quintessentially 10s
Much like the mid 80s had that colorful geometric shapes Aesthetic

It's funny that this lind of aesthetic was created to look more modern in comparison to the insane maximalist/skeuomorphic late 00s but now it looks super dated too

That whole Saved By the Bell/Jazz Solo Cup aesthetic.

Whereas the 2000s were much more serious, mature, and edgy.

Even as a teen I looked back at my 2000s pictures and always thought, wow I look like I put on clothes found next to a dumpster. 2010s have a similar vibe, general optimistic and pastel colors and then there's mumble rap/grunge

Pretty much every aspect of the 2010s reflects this, INCLUDING tech aesthetics, which dropped the maximalist aesthetics of the 2000s in favor of flat design. It's not trashy, but instead, completely lacking of personality whatsoever. Even the ugliest aesthetics of the 90s and 00s at least had personality to them.
