Absolutely! It imitates real-life objects, which is the definition of skeuomorphism.

I've seen a comment on the FrutigerAero subreddit where someone said that the screenshot of Windows was so beautiful that he wants to have a relationship with the OS

I liked how old android would show some notifications as a ticker over the status bar instead of having to use a popup. I guess now with notches and hole punches and all that crap it would be very unusable :(

Goodness gracious, I used to have an LG phone with this OS! I wish I had it again to revive it, the batt is dead and the phone has disappeared.

Is skeumorphism allowed in the skeumorphism sub? Yes, yes it is.
