It seems that there's a subreddit for such things now: https://www.reddit.com/r/badUIbattles/ https://www.reddit.com/r/badUIbattles/
The whole thing started with a couple inputs found in the wild: a volume slider bar that glitched and had to be slided in the 10px across instead of the >100px along the bar. And a phone number input that had four-digit groups as dropdown inputs with 9999 values.
- jammaloo 7y agoThat's correct, I chimed in with a rotary phone input https://twitter.com/jmcfreeman/status/724012572861718528 https://twitter.com/jmcfreeman/status/724012572861718528 but I literally just built this project https://github.com/peterszerzo/rotary-phone https://github.com/peterszerzo/rotary-phone and recorded it. It handles the rotation input very well.
