My experience was different. I really enjoyed working in visual languages and found them quite pleasant to navigate. I also found that when applying good software engineering principles, visual languages can look very clear. Its just most users of visual languages aren’t professional programmers and never learned software engineering principles like abstraction. Here’s the thing: textual programming languages are also impossible to understand and follow if they don’t follow software engineering practices, but that’s often ignored because we’re used to programming in them. Well abstracted textual code is usually compared to badly abstracted visual code and textual languages are declared the “winner” (even if it shouldn’t be a competition at all).
