Didn't really bother me till I got bit by a dog and it fucked up my pointer finger.

Yeah, why click or tap once in one spot when you can swipe 10 times.

I think the 'gestures' crowd needs to go pound sand.

Either implement it as a setting, or don't force people to use it.

How disconnected from reality are you where writing your own with css is the appropriate solution?

Have you talked to a normal person recently?

There's the keyword. There should be easy to navigate settings for this.

The problem with modern designers and developers is that they push the narrative that there is "one" way to do things so they don't have to maintain different configurations.

It's lazy. It's incompetent. It's what makes them more money for doing less work.

The solution is to have higher standards. Don't let these fools tell you what you want just so their jobs are easier.

I'm actually really glad we're hearing it.

It's a sign that people are finally starting to have higher standards.

I think those with low standards would get upset. Nobody likes to admit they're being taken advantage of.

What do you mean 'overuse'?

It's just now entering our vernacular.

Am I the only one who never considered normal scrollbars to be a 'waste of space'?

It's surprising to me how modern designers seem to care about scrollbars, but not all the white space we see on everything else.

Just more examples of modern designers creating shit to stay relevant.

I hate modern design. We had good design up until the mid-2000s, then it all started going to shit.

Sorry bro, the modern designers said they were too big.

You can use the scrollwheel on your mouse, though. Have you seen the meme?

This is literally the fault of the reddit generation of design. Ironically, reddit is one of the worst-designed pieces of shit on the planet.

Oh well.

I call it the "War on Scrollbars" and I think it started when some meme about watching a teacher use a computer got popular. https://old.reddit.com/r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu/comments/df8cd/watching_someone_use_a_computer/

I absolutely hate how tiny scrollbars have gotten. I hate how clicking in a certain spot cause the scrollbar to move slightly instead of jumping directly to where I click.

These are modern design decisions that I think shitty designers implemented because they need to feel useful. Then, autistic users who want nothing on their screen praise them for it.

It's disgusting and I hope, one day, we can look back on how the 2010s were the worst decade for software design so far.

Love this is what we spend our resources on while children go without food, water, electricity, education, and shelter.

Stealing is morally wrong no matter what.

Just curious, do you get anything if you tell on them?

Dang, from one 'local' establishment to the next.

And I bet you're paying more, too.

Eh. Shop wherever you get the best deal.

Getting screwed over by someone locally isn't better than getting screwed over by someone miles away unless you're a tool.

KDE

It's like a swiss-army knife of DEs.

I try to make it look like Windows 7.

Hey man, it's your time and money.

Spend it how you want to.

Something tells me you only care about ideas that don't criticize you.
