The only thing annoying about this sort of blog post is that of course we will get a million posts pointing out that the old UI is faster, exposes information, and is more compatible with an expert keyboard driven workflow.
And this is all completely correct. UIs have gotten worse and there’s no hope in sight.
But it is repetitive. And kinda annoying that every individual programmer understands and acknowledges this, but the industry continues this inane march “forward.”
- LiKao 2y agoIt would be interesting how many programmers use VI or Emacs to build these "modern" slick interfaces and fail to understand the irony of this approach.
- layer8 2y ago> every individual programmer understands and acknowledges this I think you underestimate how many programmers nowadays either have never experienced the UX of an “expert keyboard driven workflow” for any significant length of time, or dismiss it as dispensable.
