Remember when software used to have a manual to explain how to use it? Back when you could actually learn some UI principles and have that knowledge transfer between apps? Now every application and OS component does its own thing however and whenever it likes, and the whole experience becomes impossible to learn other than as a giant list of special cases and exceptions, which will change with the next round of patches. This is why I can’t explain to my mom how to use her computer any more, and generally tell her to use her phone instead.
