The OPs website is dogshit. Random blobs in the text that expand and require close buttons? No wonder this clown is fussing over anchors, bro doesn’t know wtf design actually is. Arrogant front end devs have to invent new problems to keep their jobs. It is creative obsolescence in reverse.
No dude, I have things to do and your little software is a tiny roadblock in my day. I dont want to become a fellow expert in your niche, do the thing and get out of my way.
Building UI for work and for consumers is completely different. I’ve done both, user attitudes are veeeery different. Building an ecommerce page is also very different to building an engagement trap for users to sit in.
Problems start when engineers/designers/producters don’t understand their users and their goals. Or when the user is not also the customer (this is the worst)
