According fanboys MacOS is supposedly this marvel of usability.
So I've got bluetooth headphones. No visual indication whether they are connected. Could hit volume buttons, but there is no sound feedback either. So it's either couple mouse clicks on tiny buttons, or play something and be ready to disturb people around.
Yes, fanboys, I know it's headphones problem, not your beloved OS problem. I claim otherwise.

I need to do a mail merge through my school account (which is gmail). Handily, they have a concise help page on how to do this:

https://support.google.com/mail/answer/12921167

The problem is that the help page instructs me to click on an icon that doesn't exist.

You know you've done a great job when your users get an avalanche of permission requests from each of your #ecosystem app on each update.... #macos #uxfail

Legendary onboarding by Meta. New AI feature growth engineered into my list of chats and I can't even interact with it.

Went to file my state periodic report for my business today and was instructed to file with the federal FinCEN database (financial crimes enforcement). I go fill out pages of forms and submit my information, and I get this alert message…

*AFTER* I went through the whole process. #ux #uxfail

@tofticles Dén undrede jeg mig også over.

Fair nok hvis oplysningerne ikke er blevet digitaliseret eller migreret, men så skriv det istedet! #uxfail

Meta er igen ved at indsamle passivt samtykke til at de må bruge data til deres GenAI-løsning.

De skriver at jeg kan gøre indsigelse og hvis jeg allerede har gjort indsigelse behøver jeg ikke at gøre det igen. Det ville virker mere troværdigt hvis de skrev at jeg *havde* gjort indsigelse. #uxfail

Ouch, la taille des sous-titres qui ne s'adapte pas à la taille de l'écran sur le lecteur vidéo des TED Talks. C'est illisible...

Normāls UX feils — nolikt simkartes atvilktni blakus mikrofona caurumam. Kā jūs domājiet, kurā caurumā es vispirms iebakstīju ar saspraudi? Un esmu pilnīgi pārliecināts, ka es tāds neesmu viens. #uxfail

DSL-Anschluss bei Vodafone bestellt. Telekom schickt eine SMS mit einer "Umfrage", wo man den Namen des Vormieters in fünf Schritten eingeben soll:

1. Kennen Sie den Namen des Vormieters? (Ja/Nein)
2. Nachname
3. Vorname
4. Anschlusstermin vorziehen? (Ja/Nein)
5. Anmerkungen

Die "Umfrage" hat keine Möglichkeit, zum vorherigen Schritt zurückzukehren (z.B. wenn man bei 2. den vollen Namen eingegeben hat)! AAAAHHHHHHHHH!

Microsoft war mal Vorreiter bei UX & Usability. Die Älteren unter uns erinnern sich noch.

Dieses Fenster kommt beim PC-Start und enthält keine klickbaren Elemente.

❌ Angemessene / dynamische Schriftgröße
❌ Textumbruch
❌ Scroll-Leisten
❌ Kontrast und Ausrichtung des Fenstertitels
❌ 1px-Rahmen zum Vergrößern

Das muss wohl dieses Copilot-Vibe-Coding sein!

(ja, dieses Windows ist auf 100% Textskalierung eingestellt!)

Whoever came up with the idea of showing video controls only on touch: have you ever tried to seek? It's an incredibly frustrating user experience if the controls disappear before you can touch them or disappear when trying to drag. #UXFail

#facebook allows you to choose up to year 3024 as your birth year during account setup. 💩 #uxfail

WTF preventing copy and paste in a password field is bad. But have you ever encountered copy and paste disabled everywhere 😲? (Actually, everywhere apart from password fields)

They also seem to disable the context menu in general 🤮

National Rail website. Return fare. Leaving on Wednesday. Returning on Wednesday, last train. "Invalid time".

After some thought... Apparently "last train back on Wednesday" finds 01.30 *on Wednesday morning*, which is before 11.30, and so it's considered an invalid time for the journey, and the whole thing refuses to work with no reasonable explanation.

:catfacepalm:
