And fighting them is increasingly difficult, but at least somewhat possible:
- VSC luckily still supports
workbench.experimental.modernUI
On the web, we can use userstyles sharpening most dulled corners [1]. And if you happen to have seen upcoming Firefox skin, it is also pill addict's fewer dream. We can use userChrome.css, but web components are making it very cumbersome and fragile, basically constantly adding new custom properties, being glad they are really used [2]. But I digress. I really look forward for this pill mania to wear off, like wet floors, glitters, and similar fads.

People like buttons with sharp corners in real things because they are rare and expensive, and buttons with round corners in digital things because they imitate the cheap round buttons that are everywhere.
Now that the round corners have been overused, we may get some fashion of sharp corners again.
They hired a new design lead who wants to make their mark, didn't they.
P.S. Code is super late to the game on this UI trend. See Slack redesign circa 2023 https://slack.com/blog/productivity/a-redesigned-slack-built...
P.P.S. I can’t believe I forgot jetbrains did it first.

"workbench.experimental.modernUI": false,I'd definitely love to see all Apps using the current native look and feel.
But what is the ask here? straight sharp corners on everything ?
At the end of that video you can see the modern UI preview.

I'd prefer not to.
You probably mean "affecting". As a verb, "effect" means "to put into effect" or sometimes "to make more effective". Somehow I don't get the sense you meant either of those.
I suppose I could crank out the compiler and create a stripped static binary for it. Nope, bugger that, I'll drink more wine instead.

I am losing karma because of my opinion, but that doesn't make it any less true. After all, you can just observe how the feedback goes against border radius. Hardly it will change back now to edgy corners like it's supposed to be.
