Hey everyone. I recently noticed that both the buttons on another Discourse forum and this one, have all got sharper corners? E.g. the reply button, create topic button, even the Latest/Categories/Unread one. Did something change, or is it just me?

I thought the corners look more rounded than before. I prefer it the way it is now. Rounded buttons look friendlier.

I think you’re both right:

The buttons in the Meta branded theme looked like this about a month ago

and now the look like this

But the default buttons were changed in April

Strange that it got updated much later…
