The whole digital world is gradually losing its stableness in recent years
- It’s not only because software quality degraded causing more bugs and expected behavior
- glitchy UI behavior
- animation not buttery smooth
- unpredictable interaction patterns from new apps like Tiktok
- font and layout all over the place, unnecessary blank space, decrease of information density in one page.
- icon similarity and loss of color and life, misled by streamline design
- not owning a personal library, use of streaming service
- algorithm injected contents make home screen unpredictable and not repeatable
- web based application lack subtle interaction consistency and clue
- forced software update, OTA software update
- half baked beta
It’s a glimpse of degrading of programmer’s software skill. Windows sucks because it doesn’t have any standard and well refined framework for developing its software. Even the software build by Microsoft itself is not consistent.
