@nikitonsky: “Hey, I just hid Shorts!”
“Yes, but these were only the first Shorts”

@nikitonsky: If you are looking for the checkmarks, they are on the right. Stretching your UI is good, but only up to the point

@nikitonsky: Remember to add max-width to your buttons

@nikitonsky: This is called undesirable correlation. It looks like left panel (Detect language) asks you to drag and drop and right one (English) to choose a file.

In reality, both actions apply to the left one! Or to the entire UI, if you will

Anyway, try to avoid

@nikitonsky: First: dropdowns can scroll. You don’t need to help them by limiting the amount of choices. Especially dates in the past

Second: please, I beg you, indicate somehow that controls are clickable

@nikitonsky: Your UI has chickenpox, please stay at home!

#Notifications

@nikitonsky: Pro tip: try to name your group relevant to their content.

Presented here,

Move & delete: has move but no delete
Tags: has Mark all as read

Another pro tip: if you make a group, it should contain at least two elements.

@nikitonsky: If you struggle to choose between “action or state” for your button, at least be consistent. Otherwise you get something like “See All” / “All items” and it’s very confusing
