It looks like Material 3 Expressive is coming to Android 16 later this year. As a developer, I'm kinda getting tired of all these design changes (and the migration effort they entail). What do you make of it?

As someone who never uses the default/material styles (Flutter needs an unstyled version of Flutter/material.dart akin to how HTML elements are unstyled), I like the changes. Makes Android more visually interesting and less visually boring than iOS.

I want canonical layouts over this.

It’s normal. Design constantly evolves, it’s part of our job to keep ourselves up to date.

ColorScheme expressive Some new widgets More variable fonts Button groups Where the eff is Canonical Layouts? Okay, rant off....some of its covered by 3rd party stuff...some one has to rewrite for example the two pane layout in Dual Screen for canonical layouts.

Strongly agree. Such wasted time for something I could care less about...
