Along the redesign matter - I do not know Frak - I realized that since UX design became a strongly self aware and proud so called profession with axioms and rulebooks the usability of the UI gone s*t, in general. Probably those are pretty s*t, but functionality wise just pure s*t. Compared to ugly but pratcical older things before made by UX unaware product developers without aesthetical sense but focusing on the function. UX is important, that is what make something usable for the purpose but somehow the more they work on it the worse it becomes. At least this is my generic observation throughout the years and decades, with little exceptions. Probably it is just a coincidence that the emergence of the UX brought useless products, I do not know. But I could annoy people around me with specifics and examples for hours, how something born useless or made useless with hard hard work with lots of efforts from a marginally or pretty usable state. When it was or could have been better. Probably the one worth to mention now is the Windows 11 that drives me away slowly but surely from the Windows Universe, despite the difficulty of the transition which becomes the less difficulty compared to using it on. Its reputation was never that good in this regard, it always been hip to criticise, I know people complained intensely about previous version that I could live with, but this one, this is a new league of ignorantly forced through renovation of ruined functionality with the only benefit that it occupies the UX folks there, keeping them in payroll.
