Why not make everything a bubble for consistency? The WiFi? The cell signal? The clock?? Fuck I hate Google design

I think that's just Samsung's skin, right now "base" Android doesn't look like that
-
I'm glad if that's the case. But wouldn't exactly surprise me.

I also got OneUI 7 recently and it sucks how it doesn't allow certain app widgets to be fully transparent anymore. :/

I mean it's Android, not Apple. If you don't like the style, change it? I've got 4 different options on my phone
Samsung is basically Apple
I'm not charging it because I want this phone to suffer
Yeah Samsung is just as bad, I've never had one of their Android phones but I know it's pretty far from stock.
Bonus fuckery: they also changed how you summon Google Assistant! BY REPLACING THE POWER MENU WITH IT. Note: the "side button" is the power button.
You do not have the option to hold the home button for your assistant anymore. You can either a) have access to the power menu by holding the power button, or b) have access to the assistant by holding the power button.
I will never give Samsung another red penny for as long as I live. I'll buy a goddamn landline first.
My mom has had 3 Samsung Android phones and loves them, so I know it works for some people. I've always hated they way they modified Android so I've avoided them, to each their own.
But I do think blaming Google/Android for it is a bit disingenuous. But I'm not gonna defend Google lol.
I wonder if I can make it that Predator language binary shit... 🤔
Not sure what I would be searching for, though. Status bar icons?
I searched for status notifications and it brought up all the options for me. But as someone else pointed out OP is on Samsung so they're probably more locked down.
