Lighten up, have a little fun. embrace quirks. Not everything needs to be generic and cleansed of all personality.

- VortexDream 5y agoAh, yes. Form over function, the driving principle for many insane UX "improvements" over the past 20 years. Personality is great. It's not more important than clarity or other related concerns though.
- Toutouxc 5y agoI would love to embrace quirks in all areas of life EXCEPT the safety aspect of heavy machinery.
- Bud 5y agoSame. I drove a MINI for 18 years partly because they are so quirky and that's enjoyable, but this is simply the wrong kind of thing to indulge quirkiness in. Turn signals need to function well as turn signals. That's vitally important. You can't fuck with that by making the signal actively and hilariously misleading. It's just not ok.
- woutr_be 5y agoI doubt anyone would’ve called it stupid when the arrows pointed in the direction the car would be driving. There’s zero common sense in reversing them.
- williamdclt 5y agoHonestly I'd be fine with blinkers being anything, make them emojis for all I care, _except_ arrows pointing the wrong direction. The quirkiness isn't the problem at all here
