You see this everywhere nowadays, in everything. Bad UX. All over the place. Even things that once had fantastic UX are breaking it. I want to know what they're teaching these designers in design school because theyre fucking everything up. Or is it management making design decisions for them and they just go along with it for the paycheck? Are people in these companies deliberately sabotaging products? I don't know what it is but I'm sick of it. I'll give you an example. When Android came out, one of the first, most important sets of requirements was that it do everything a normal cell phone could do the way a normal cell phone would do it. If you turn the volume all the way down, it must stay all the way down, period. And it worked like that, perfectly, for years. But recently, every so often, you want to play a video silently, and a chirp happens at the very beginning. Someone at some point changed the code where the volume control doesnt control the volume, it saves a variable that's read by the audio decoding software asynchronously and sometimes you get a race condition where audio starts before it is read. Why was this changed? Why is ensuring this functionality no longer a top priority? That's just a tiny little example. With android, side scrolling menus, pages in the recent apps that take up the whole screen, little race conditions here and there. And that's just android, probably the least offensive software UX wise that there is. Hamburger menus, border less flat elements, nests upon nests, you see UX crumbling everywhere you look. I don't know what to make of it.
