Imagine someone building furniture in their free time because they enjoy doing so, and then offers to give it away for free. You see this offer and now have two polite options:
1) decline, because you do not like it
2) accept because you do like it
I have never understood the people who take the third option:
3) complain that the furniture is not to their liking, and then demand that the person builds it to his/hers specification and then give it to them. Free of charge, because that was the original offer right?
buttons should be actions, links should be directions,
directions would take me somewhere, actions would has an effect and consequence. That you think this is okay, and assume no-one would ever be confused by this. Is clearly an issue in the industry at large
This rattled my brain, that this is a feature now, says volumes about the quality decline in UI. I am a developer, and mainly use tools on the command line, or with TUIs.
But whenever I use android apps and websites, I constantly find myself longclicking or rightclicking things, hoping for stuff to happen, that just doesnt.
