Obviously this is a personal preference, but the multiple layers of beveled grey on the Qt UI is not something I like, as it forces a lot of grouping on the eye where it doesn't serve any purpose.

I would go with the original, Apple or the Win11 one. Material would be good, what's with the lavender shades?

I always try to reduce the palette: say two background shades max, no drop shadows, only as many foreground colors as needed and if it seems to bland, add more bells and whistles.

At this point I dunno if Win11 has an “original” UI. Up until Win 8 Microsoft kept introducing new widget sets. I think the official answer for how you are supposed to develop desktop apps is “use Electron” so far as I can tell… or better yet make a web application.
