Chrome is so much not a reference in design that we should take this take carefully

When it was new its design was a big draw (second to performance, of course).

Are you confusing modern Google Chrome with early Google Chrome, or did you dislike early Google Chrome?

All other browser I've tried (firefox, vivaldi, edge, safari, atlas, many others) and all other programs with a tab-based UI I use (zed, vs code, sqlitebrowser) look worse.

Both you and the poster could both be correct.

Looking good and being a poor interface are unrelated.

IOW, something could look absolutely beautiful and still have a nightmarish UI.

"Looking pretty" is subjective. Being a good UI is objective.

What don't you like about Chrome design?

It's not that there is anything to like or dislike: it's just that there is no "design" in it, nothing to reference
