There's a lot of research on why rounded corners are better in UI. Flat design with square corners makes Open Event look unfinished and drab. Not to say that a lack of theme color is not helping. Hence, I think rounded corners should be restored. Except Microsoft's UI, which is still not a golden standard, I have seen no site which uses sharp corners.

First button does not even look like a button, and looks unfinished

If someone has strong opinions on this, let's discuss
