I just opened a great role in my team at @openproject: Senior UI/UX Designer. 🥳 #getfediHired
Anyone looking for a full-time, remote* #design & #research role in #foss?
In case you would like to shape the future of OpenProject in a user-centric product team, please apply with your portfolio, CV and a cover letter. We want to hear from you and not your #genAI. Thanks! :)
*In a location within 2 hours (time-zone) from Berlin.
OpenStreetMap/User Interface Design:
Um Kommentare auf der Karte anzeigen zu lassen - also Fehler, Korrekturen etc. -, drückt man die Sprechblase.
Um diese "Hinweise" wieder auszuschalten, drückt man das "Ebenen"-Symbol. Darauf klappt eine Übersicht der Kartenebenen auf, d.h. versch. Stile, wie OSM dargestellt werden kann. Ganz unten findet man dann mehrere Checkboxen. Eine davon heißt "Hinweise/Fehlermeldungen" und ist aktiviert. Den Haken muss man entfernen.
Total intuitiv.

English speakers of the fedi. In a software with the interface in English, Reading a menu with verbs such as Save, Open, Close, Edit, Format etc., do you read them as imperative (an order: "do this") or as an infinitive (the "base form" of the verb, like "to do this")?
Are you a native speaker or have English as a second language?

I just logged into yet another key online work tool that has completely redesigned their UI.
So it looks like rather than doing my deadline work, I'm going to be putting time into relearning a tool I've used for years by muscle memory from scratch.

It's really something that my e-reader has better and more usable scrollbars than most desktop interfaces (Windows, MacOS, and Gnome). :/
The scrollbar is thin, but the grabbable region is large (kind of like the default in KDE), and easy to manipulate directly with your finger. This is actually better than #iOS' implementation, and many #Android apps.

A screenshot from the Kobo e-reader (Kobo Clara Color) UI, showing a page from C.S. Lewis' *Out of the Silent Planet*.
The dictionary entry is shown for "saloon," and there is a thin, but very usable scrollbar on the right side of the dictionary pop-up.
Ugh, LinkedIn is the worst!
I try to disable all the notifications that aren't directly relevant to me, but they keep inventing new kinds of notifications that I have to opt out of! So annoying.
Trying to do that this morning, I see they have "simplified and regrouped" their notification settings, which is hilarious, because they're showing me a list of 14 top-level notification categories, each with its own tree of sub-categories beneath it. There must be a few dozen different categories of notification, each with multiple options within.
I think I found the one I needed to turn off? I have no idea. This is actively hostile UX.

A screenshot of a user interface from LinkedIn. At the top is a notice saying "Your notification settings are regrouped and simplified," followed by a list of 14 different categories of notifications, each with an arrow leading to a tree of sub-categories with arrows that lead to actual notification settings.

@0xabad1dea what is
- a user interface that is Normal
???
- Because #Windows-esque #UI & #UX is fucking atrocious brainrot and I refuse to accept such neurotypical, proven-to-be-wrong horseshite to begin with!
For anyone reasonable, there's @zulip, @RocketChat and #IRC + #Mumble & #JitsiMeet already...
@ficklefutures scrape the "#Ai" #bullshit and just get yourself some decent #FrontendDevs:
Good #FrontendDevelopers know how to make proper #UI & #UX and actually care about #accessibility and #UserFriendlyness.
- I can vouch for @fuchsiii 's work!
@yakkoj it's still a massive #downgrade as "#LiquidGlass" is a worse knockoff of #AeroGlass which used #Outlines and #contrast instead of merely giving the illusion a big drop of water landed on a touchscreen.
Does anyone know of a write-up of why there is no autocomplete for numbers? Like if I type 3035 why my phone doesn't suggest 2025, etc.? I can think of some reasons why this might not be a thing from way over here in my armchair, but I know very little about this, and am interested in thoughts or experiences of someone who knows more.
If you just know things about this, I would be interested in hearing it, too.
@snazzyq the #sarcasm is strong in this one.
- #LiquidGlass is just a worse #AeroGlass theme!

Yes, #Microsoft, that is exactly what I want. When I press CTRL+V in #Excel, I want a popup to appear and cover what I'm working on.

Close-up of some cells in a workbook. Part of a highlighted cell can be seen. The rest is obscured by a popup that says "CTRL" and has an image representing the clipboard.
Hmm. Our 2yr old just figured out the child-lock of the washing machine.
I'm no #UI #designer but maybe the child-lock of a washing machine should not be a large clicky button with a bright yellow light, which then disables the lock after just holding it down for 1.5 seconds.

UI/UX-Slop - Spotify versus NCspot
In diesem Artikel geht es um einen Vergleich der Extreme. Der Spotify-Electron-Client tritt gegen den Spotify-TUI-Client an. Es geht um das User Interface und die User Experience.

Funny X post. The text says "To commemorate Alan Dye moving from Apple to Meta, here's one of his best quotes: 'Design is not just what it looks… Design is how it…'" Parts of the text are unreadable because of Apple's Liquid Glass UI design, lead by Alan Dye.
I HATE this so much and I notice it in SO MANY UIs, when you do an action and the notification box is RIGHT ON THE BUTTON to do the action again, or right on top of the field you need to use next, and you have to wait for the notification to timeout before you can keep setting things up. #UI #UX

Y’all. I made this cute little animation to show that a link was successfully copied. I use it on my writing site.
It’s not monumental, but I really like it. My son said it feels “very satisfying.”

Just tried to read an Economist article. This was the "privacy" popup. After 30 seconds of staring I still had no fucking clue what "off" and "on" meant. I eventually forced myself to read carefully and realized I should press "on" (and had to think about which button position was "on").
Please give me a simple GDPR-style "accept/reject" button with some confidence in what the "reject" button means (via laws).
I don't need to read any article that much. Bye.

A popup on The Economist site about "managing your data." This is what you get when you click "manage cookies" instead of whatever misleading button/link apparently gives them full run of your browser.
"We and our marketing, analytics ,and advertising partners collect personal information..." blah blah.
In the wall o'text I didn't notice for about a minute "you can ask us not to share your data with our partners by toggling ON below."
(more blah blah)
"Do not sell or share [off on]"
Then "certain parties to which we sell or share personal information may re-sell or re-share your personal information... to opt out... visit their digital properties..."
Yeah, fuck everything about this.
I see people asking "I have #UI skills, how do I get better at #UXDesign?" My answer is: learn #ContentDesign.
You can't hide behind whizbang styling when your medium is text. It becomes obvious that the copy is the tip of the iceberg. The rest of the work is in the information architecture that lies beneath. You stop thinking in screens, and start thinking in systems.
UI/copy is just a touchpoint of the system. You still have to design the system underneath and between the touchpoints.
Just how idiotic and user hostile is the #mautic #UX #UI?
To import the contacts CSV file, under the menu option, locate [action] button and use dropdown to choose import...
... no such option...
Problem is so common (apparently), that the "solution" is to append.. /contacts/import/new onto the URL of the contact page...
Long-overdue #question and request for #recommendations: What to use besides #GIMP? I don't hate it (I've become used to it) but I object to the name and it has annoyances galore. If I can use something better I will. I'd very much like it to be #FOSS.
My use case: mostly photo editing (though a lot of that has been replaced with Darktable), sometimes making memes or flyers, etc. Occasionally I draw or make something from scratch.
What else is there that does these things, and (very important) is better at them, hopefully with a more intuitive, useful interface?
GNOME has had that system for more than two decades or so IIRC {if I recall correctly} they're 27 ATM.
I had seen it in the first couple of years of GNOME spawn and development, when the programmers chose the route of less configuration & more dictation

@Sascha Ich meine, konsistente #UI & #UX ist wichtig...
- Und in einem größeren Organisationskontext sind #WebApps und #WebClients eine gute Option, weil damit #SSO & #Datensicherheit einfacher umsetzbar ist und anders als #ThinkClients mit #RemoteDesktop weniger #Traffic und weniger Ressourcenbedarf auf IT-Seite notwendig ist.
Jedenfalls deutlich besser und eine gute Alternative zu #Office365 für alle die #DSGVO & #BDSG einhalten wollen!
2am. Finished coding my designs. My brain is fried. And it feels good anyway.
Tomorrow I’ll wake up and forget I was even exhausted from coding and start all over again.

Instagram moving icons around the UI feels like the designers were being micromanaged and needed to show they were working on SOMETHING.
So stupid.
