cannot believe twitter web ux is as bad as it is
feel like it's half not their fault (scrolling is hard to customize in the DOM), half mostly of their fault (you can use columns to make infinite-scroll interfaces less neurologically grating), and half totally their fault (giant dom hierarchy that ruins my ram, loading recirc before content, zero confidence when ctrl-clicking something whether it will actually open in a new tab)
- recursive 4y agoThe reason it's hard to customize scrolling is probably that it worked perfectly well in the first place. The solution is to stop messing with it.
- andirk 4y agoI often feel like every advancement in web UI is a downgrade. In other words, bring back <blink> and <marquee>.
- labster 4y agoNitter provides superior UX even though it takes 10 times longer to load. Think about that, I’m waiting 15 seconds because that is more enjoyable than Twitter’s native interface. No nags, no autoplay videos, no repeated clicking to see a single thread, reasonable amounts of whitespace.
- 3np 4y ago10 times longer sounds abnormal. Try self-hosting and it may even load faster.
