 “What if you set out to make the worst website you possibly could? So poorly designed and full of frustrating patterns that users would not only hate the experience of using this website, but would also come to hate your company. Could we make a web experience so terrible that it would express how much our company hated our users?” https://matduggan.com/the-worst-website-in-the-entire-world/ 13 comments
This is one of the most entertaining and savage takedowns I've read in a while. If you make a website so horrible that somebody takes the considerable time required to carefully catalog and recount *all the ways* you're doing it wrong, then ... yikes. Time to reflect on your life choices.  @4d3fect I'm honestly just kind of amazed here at the concentration of UX anti-practices concentrated in one spot it's like ... if somebody rolled a D20 on every possible decision point for a web UI, and rolled a 1 *every single time* they'd end up with the Broadcom support site, apparently. @darkuncle I had to get documentation and SDKs from Broadcom when I was working on AWS networking devices, and I agree with everything written there. @tacertain kind of feel like I dodged a bullet in some ways not being on a service team while I was there |

“Hey front-end folks, just a quick note. Never ever ever ever ever mess with my browser. It's not yours, it's mine. I'm letting you use it for free to render your bloated sites. Don't do this to me. I get to copy paste whatever I want whenever I want. When you get your own browser you can do whatever you want but while you are living in my house under my rules I get to copy/paste whenever I goddamn feel like it.”
