Meanwhile, some other UI uses square boxes for radio buttons.
Or have a highlighted button but the enter key doesn't activate it.
Or there are three different menus all behind a different symbol (ellipsis, hamburger, kebab).
There is a lot of variance in quality. Those of you who polish your UI: you are appreciated. Truly.

- two_handfuls 2y agoI was talking about the default button (typically blue, activated with enter), not the currently focused button (outlined, space).
