The UI is ugly and dated

What?

I think SN has the most modern UI ever

Yea I don't see how it's dated. Ugly is subjective. I don't think it's ugly, either.

tbf to juanito, it certainly isn't conventionally attractive

I don't think it's designed to be?

Nah, but I think that's the point they're making and it's valid. Conventional people want conventional design and most people are conventional.

I agree. I guess it just depends on the target audience of SN, both now and future, as to whether it necessitates a revamp or not.

Full blown revamps are usually a bad idea IMO. It's far better to fix what's most visually wrong one at a time.

That's supposed to be toast ;)
