- lightgreen 6y agoAnecdotally, yesterday I accidentally learned that my relative clicks OK in any dialog window within 200ms without even attempt to read the message. So the alert you suggest would slightly help 1% of geeks and will annoy 99% of the users.
- Thorrez 6y agoCompared to the option of not converting, it would help everyone, reducing annoyance. Also I'm not sure if you can generalize from your one relative to 99% of users.
- LordDragonfang 6y agoWhile it may not be 99%, /r/talesfromtechsupport on reddit has enough instances of this to suggest it is extremely common user behavior.
