This is one of two modern UI design fetishes that makes me want to scream.
1) Completely unusable scrollbars that are trying to pretend you're on iOS
2) Almost undetectable active window indicators. The active and inactive titlebars have to be the same color, for some braindead reason.
I appreciate that some desktops like #KDE #Plasma and (iirc) #COSMIC are configurable enough to fix that oversight, but I still don't understand why they do that by default.
