Nah, i think most people think it’s ugly as fuck, because it is! And still I like the aesthetic? Or at least the idea of it.

For once, it’s committed to the bit. Very few compromises were made on the looks, and those to comply with regulatory standards, not to make it more appealing. I’m a world where most cars look kinda the same, that counts something.

It’s not trying to be beautiful. It’s trying to be unique, divisive, to make you think “what is THAT thing??” whenever you encounter one, and on that grounds I’d say it succeeds.

However this kind of looks suffer greatly from the soddy build quality. If you are going for pure straight lines and angles you better make sure they are perfect, because of they are not people are going to notice and it’s going to spoil the effect.

So, in summary, cool idea but poor execution, perhaps if Elon had let his designers do their work they could have pulled it off. Also Hyundai did better but with more compromises.

I used Reddit for years and maybe posted twice, here i just feel more compelled to participate. I find it hard to put into words, but Reddit feels like social media, which I hate, and lemmy feels more like an old school forum.

Why would more users be better? As far as I’m concerned whatever number of users are right now is the right one.
