I don't think the core of UX is really that subjective. It's all about consistency, polish, and most importantly cognitive load. Eye candy is highly subjective

I don't think the core of UX is really that subjective. It's all about consistency, polish, and most importantly cognitive load. Eye candy is highly subjective but that's not what I'm talking about.
- majewsky 8y agoI think you're being downvoted because there is an ambiguity in what "subjective" refers to here. The core criteria of good UX are not subjective, as you say. But whether a certain UX qualifies as good under those criteria depends highly on the audience. A good video-editing UX for amateurs looks completely different from a good video-editing UX for professionals. Long-time users of vim or emacs love their editors because of their UX, while many new users hate them for the same UX.
- smolder 8y agoYes, that's a good distinction to make that I didn't capture well.
