Yet another “Maybe Later” anti-UI. What ever happened to “No?”
Microsoft is like a creepy guy in a nightclub going up to every woman, asking “Do you want to dance? [Yes] [Maybe Later]”
Their deliberate misunderstanding of user consent should be criminal.
- bslanej 2y agoI think maybe later means no. But it’s worded to assure the user that the choice is reversible.
- bolognafairy 2y agoYep. This is what the vast majority of “maybe later”s are about. I’ve seen decisions being made based on this fact, and I’ve seen users worried about an irreversible fork in the road. There are of course cases where “maybe later” does legitimately mean “we’re going to ask you again in a week”. I see those myself, and I hate them.
- beachy 2y ago> But it’s worded to assure the user that the choice is reversible .. While also disrespecting anyone who never wants to avail themselves. What happened to good old "Don't ask me again"?
- Isamu 2y agoIt’s worded that way to assure the user that they will ask again. And again.
