This is probably controversial, but I’ve always felt 2011-2012 was the best.

Edit: turns out this is not controversial lol

I agree. And I know that part of it is simply of nostalgia, but I always liked that particular level of 3D-ness in user interfaces. Websites weren't flat yet, but they didn't have the thickness of a Windows Media Player skin on Windows XP, either. Android had a similar look at the time, too.

Anything where you can actually fucking see it is better than the current garbage tbh.

Pretty much anything between that and the 2015-2025 ones work for me, I recently got the new one and I dislike it. I genuinely think the 2015-2025 one was perfect.
