@nikitonsky: How many times does one need to click on a power off icon to power off computer? 4 times, apparently (last one shows one more menu)

Thanks @zabolekar for the picture

#Linux #Ubuntu #Gnome

@nikitonsky: Show more options: same 4 options

Thanks @zabolekar for reporting this

#Windows #Menu

@nikitonsky: Do you even remember why we were making websites in the first place?

Thanks ethical_haquer for the picture

#StackOverflow #Popups #CookieBanner #SignIn

@nikitonsky: Left: text field, right: button. Obviously

@nikitonsky: Props to Apple for making a simple “Save As...” dialog so confusing

#Apple #macOS #Tahoe #Dialog #SaveAs #TextEdit

@nikitonsky: Leave it to Apple to design popup in a popup in a popup

#macOS #Tahoe #Apple #Popup

@nikitonsky: Calendar that starts on Wednesday? Sure, why not

@nikitonsky: This dialog always confuses me. I have to read small print to really understand what does it want

#Apple #macOS #Dialog #VisualHierarchy #Fingerprint #Authentication

@nikitonsky: This is unacceptable. Burn it to the ground

#Notification #Dot #Habr #Animation

@nikitonsky: This is exactly backwards! Checkbox (top) should be square, radio buttons (list of reasons) should be round. Come on!

Thanks @chuhlomin for the picture

UPD: You can select multiple reasons, so checkboxes are correct there. My bad

#Amazon #Checkbox #RadioButton #Unsubscribe

@nikitonsky: I didn’t think this pattern still exist anywhere: you have to manually “Save” settings before navigating away, otherwise you’ll get this annoying popup.

But the question I have is: do you really expect “Discard” to be the most useful action here? Like, people mostly go to settings to change them, not to discard them, right? At least (at least!) add a “Save” button somewhere too.
