UX designers (which includes nearly anyone developing front-end code, whether it's in your job title or not), remember that real people will have to use your interface. It will affect them. It can have a serious impact on their quality of daily life.

Puisqu'il est question d'accessibilité dans cet article pourrait-on en finir avec les blocs qui s'ouvrent et se ferment sur les pages en déplaçant le texte par rapport à l'endroit où on a cliqué ?

Dans le temps on a inventé l'hyper lien et ça marche aussi à l'intérieur d'une page, vous pourriez mettre les 4 rubriques et faire une sorte de menu, ça serait moins chiant à lire.

Oops, just realized that I'm still on 22.04 LTS Kubuntu.😮

Why has there been no warning/popup or something that support has been running out as of April this year!?

Not good!

Time to upgrade to 24.04 LTS on a cozy sunday, I guess.😊

But first...👆
...let me do a backup.👌

Please, stop making me sign up for your "job application handling system". Please, I beg of you.
Having to sign up for every possible job is really exhausting, going through the whole process dozens of times a day.
I don't even have the time to write a cover letter thanks to all the sign-up flows. I've completely lost what I wanted to apply for by the time I can confirm my account.

I haven’t used InDesign since high school, when it was PageMaker. Yet, nearly 25 years later, I’m still caught by images/SVGs being included in the document and disappearing if the original is moved or deleted. #adobe #badux

I think I have wanted to paste *with* formatting maybe twice in my life. Every. Other. GODDAMNED. Time, I have wanted to just paste the DATA I copied from elsewhere, and have it match the place I'm pasting it into.

"Paste without formatting" should be the default. "Paste WITH formatting" should be the behavior you have to explicitly ask for.

Apparently it's not just "I didn't start from season 1".

Apparently the Paramount Plus app is so crap that we're re-watching Discovery from the first episode and it STILL doesn't remember what we watched yesterday. You've got to go and find the episode yourself. Which gets more annoying as you get further into the series.

#Amazon has a handy button to change your language. And helpfully they've localized the names of each language so you can only tell what they are if you can read that language. Hablo Inglés y solo pequeño Español ... And I'm not fluent by any means.

The native spelling for that language should be the primary one displayed #badUI #badUX

Amazon language select with all the languages listed primarily with their name in Spanish

I'm really annoyed with Slack's #UX behavior where normally, pressing Enter sends the text you're composing and Shift+Enter lets you insert a line-break... EXCEPT when you're in a code block. At that point, for no reason that I can discern, the behavior is reversed, and you have to just hit Enter to add another line, while pressing Shift+Enter in the code block will immediately send your message.

Whyyyyy‽😖

Trying the #Wero app, a European alternative to Paypal. Its design looks funky but I can’t believe that they never tested this with different screen sizes. My iPhone is set to the enlarged layout because I‘m still using a small screen SE model. And of course the UI breaks in a boneheaded way…. #badUX

Screenshot of the Wero app with 3 buttons to send, receive or scan a QR code. The text on each one awkwardly breaks into two lines because the designer insists on having lots of white space on those buttons.
It feels like reducing the text padding by even a single pixel would be enough to fit the labels onto the buttons. This only happened because the app designers never tested their app on anything but a phone with default settings.

TIL in Maps long pressing the little weather icon will display lots of more details. How can normal people find this? #badUX

I just opened a #Gitlab account just to open an issue in a project. What a bloody mess of an account creation process! 😖
