I’m convinced no one at #Microsoft actually uses #Office.
If they did, this wouldn’t feel like a haunted ’90s time capsule held together by dialog boxes and regret.
This is Microsoft. Not a garage startup.
Do better. Seriously.

Outside Interactive intentionally designed the cookies opt out to be obfuscated with this toast message hiding the footer link to adjust the cookies settings and it's incredibly disappoint for them to do this #darkpattern. #ux #userexperience #baddesign #badux
#bluesky #badux evidently a new update to the site, if you unfollow someone in your following list it now is removed from the feed immediately, whereas before it turned into a blue Follow button. As a general principle you want actions you can revert in case the user makes a mistake. Just noticed it
Screenshot with the following text: "It would make more sense if we found out that the team behind redesigning the UI for MacOS 26 Tahoe was hired by Meta a year ago and deliberately sabotaged their work to make the Mac look clownish and amateur."
This is yet another reason I do not plan to install macOS 26 on my daily driver.

In the last hour and a half tonight, I've started the wrong video six times. If you click right, the selection should move right; the row should not move left unless you're at the end of the visible part of the row. #UX #YouTube #UXFail #BadUX
Hey @microsoft.com, Outlook's Schedule Send functionality is great in theory but ruined by the fact that you don't let users decide when they can use it. We shouldn't need blogs like this to give us "workarounds" for simple features narrowmiscellany.wordpress.com/2025/01/26/v... #techfail #badux

Takeover ad on mobile for HuffPost reading make this the last ad you see here.
The unforgettable image of animated #ads climbing up the wall in @greatdismal.bsky.social ‘s *Idoru* is here, just in a different way. It’s a layer between us and meaning. This post is not a commentary on the content of @huffpost.com but rather its #digital #advertising policy.

If you ever thought that @sumsung.bsky.social #smart #fridge is a bad idea, you were right. Don't buy one. Because look at this shit. Does anyone aside from head of #Samsung marketing department EVER thought "you know what, my kitchen needs ADS!"? #badUX

The LinkedIn mobile web experience is awful.
It keeps suggesting to download the app (no, thanks), and when you say nah, you're good, it scrolls all the way back up to the top of the timeline.
Also, they removed functionality that the desktop web experience has (and I needed right now).

Not feeling frustrated enough? (Ha!) Try setting a date using some of these purposefully poorly designed interfaces.

The level of disdain for users and, not incidentally, ableism, in micro f**king scrollbars that require navigating mouse cursors very, very precisely to make them tiny bits slightly wider and barely usable for a few ms is mind-boggling. I have two monitors FFS. Give my scrollbars real estate!

Pretty awful #BBC News design here, where the Idaho story is little more than a TikTok-type video, with no apparent link (nor permalinks) to text etc describing the actual story. It feels like the worst kind of infotainment... www.bbc.co.uk/news #BadUX #Enshittification

Drop-down menu on United.com checkout for telephone country prefix. The first option is G.E.O. plus 9 9 5. Followed by several other countries starting with G or D, in no apparent order. I guess no countries start with A, B, or C? * GEO +995 * DEU +49 * GHA +233 * GIB +350 * GRC +30 * GRL +299 * GRD +1473 * GLP +590
Same drop-down menu, continued. Now mostly starting with E or F, although sprinkled with a few more Gs as wel. * ECU +593 * EGY +20 * SLV +503 * GNQ + 240 * ERI +291 * EST +372 * ETH +251 * FLK +500 * FRO +298 * FJI +679 * FIN +358 * FRA +33 * GUF +594 * PYF +689
Same menu continued, last page, mostly T and U at end of alphabet, by also an A and a G here. * TCA +1649 * TUV +688 * UGA +256 * UKR +380 * ARE +971 * GBR +44 * USA +1 * URY +598 * UZB +998 * VUT +678 * VEN +58 * VNM +84 * WLF +681

I reached a point where I have to fight 10 trash mobs before reaching the boss. Boss who has a cinematic intro, THAT YOU CAN'T SKIP. Even after the first try. I have questions.

Amazon's Music app has to be one of the most poorly designed apps I've ever encountered. Independently of the fact that it doesn't update the latest albums I've purchased, its filtering process is atrocious. Stop telling people to go back to the office, and build better products. #amazon #badux
Windows 11 sticky notes app showing a note I just made. It captured the fact that before switching TO it, I was working in a browser window.
If I tab AWAY, unless I blow it open to its own little subwindow, the note itself closes (which I guess is reasonable). And for some reason the "+Note" and "Screenshot" buttons now appear. The addition of these buttons now shifts my list of notes down, visually disruptive.
If I tab to another application (or back to a browser as here), that "Recent notes" label changes to "Your notes from <Vivaldi icon> <name of webpage> - Vivaldi". Which is yet ANOTHER visual disruption out of the corner of my eye.
And there's a setting called "Remember the source: Automatically capture the active window information to help you remember better." with a checkbox. If you uncheck this box, the stupid label change remains, all that stops is where the top of your note has a snip of `Source: <what window you had open>`. The visual disruption of that label changing, and having the +Note/Screenshot buttons appear and disappear all the time is annoying AF.
#Windows11's new #StickyNotes app (a thinly disguised #OneNote) is fucking annoying. Since it is so-called "smart", and it attempts to provide context around the "source" of your note, its window is constantly updating with "current source" ALL THE TIME. Its visually […]

This WhatsApp screen: Yes, we want to empower you to have more security, except not really. lolz. Tbf, options are available in the mobile app, just not the desktop app. But also, fix this or add a message telling folks where to go. #badux
