hey tech folk:

if you keep rejecting the idea of good ui/ux, you're never going to beat discord. i'm looking at you open source community.

  @gamer@bungle.online as long as a project does not prioritise convenience factor, it will never be able to make it

  i'm pretty sure that's a personal thing, but i don't mind unintuitive or even missing UI. generally, the less i have to use the mouse the better.
  butbutbut i also recognize that that's not to be generalized and that there is a reason applications where the user clicks through bitmaps are moar popular.
  it may sound a bit egocentral, but i'd be very sad if all my fav programs started overhauling their UX to be more in line with popular software.
  butbutbutbutbutbut i respect that it's also not my decision to make and i'm really glad i don't have to do UI design :blobcatgiggle2:

  @GNUxeava
  If you think ChatGPT's UX is "just a text box", you've not done UX design before.
  Placement, font, responsiveness, colors, etc. are all part of the overall design. "Just a text box" would be <body><form><input>

  @r000t@ligma.pro @gamer@bungle.online we don't have money for studiesYou don't need, really. The ones who end up doing it have to justify it to get more funds so they glorify it. You just need a good eye, a bunch of people who also have a good sense of aesthetic and know some good design practices. As long as it is simple and intuitive, it will be good enough, "simple" being the key term. Look at ChatGPT. No fancy bells and whistles, just a simple textbox and a simple output.

  @gamer we don't have money for studies and we don't put in telemetry to A/B test moving each button a few pixels in each direction to see which gets 0.1% more clicks across 5 million users
