Just like unlocking your phone for one specific, quick purpose then getting distracted by notifications and 10-15 minutes you've forgotten what you actually needed to do. Deliberate gruen or poor ui design?
Social media & their ilk UI is likely not a mistake (eg youtube, X, netflix) given it nakedly optimizes engagement.

- mrweasel 2y agoI don't know, Snapchats UI is so confusing that I find it hard to believe that they did that deliberately. Every so often I get lost in some weird corner of the app and need to force close the app and start over.

Constantly changing things around based on detailed telemetry is effectively doing backpropagation by hand - the result doesn't need to make any sense, it only has to improve the metrics with each change.
