"Good design is intuitive" is so ingrained into the way we think and talk about the work that we often forget to ask the key question - *to whom?*
Any interface is "intuitive" to someone who is already familiar with the design patterns and the interaction techniques that it uses. Similarly, any interface is "unintuitive" when it introduces the user to new interaction techniques.
🧵 short thread 🧵
The NUI trend from a decade ago failed precisely because designers imagined that intuitiveness was (or ought to be) an inherent property of the design, rather than the human-computer system.
Every interface is learned. If the user isn't learning it in your app, it's because they learned it somewhere else. By acting as though an interface is inherently either intuitive or not, we make it impossible for users to learn in our app, and assume that they will simply go learn it somewhere else.
The responsible choice is to design learnable apps, rather than intuitive ones. But please don't misunderstand — I am NOT talking about onboarding tours and those horrible tooltips that swarm you whenever you log in for the first time.
Please stop using those forever.

Sleep well all, when bed time reaches you 💤
Today my partner and I hopped into the dinghy, and I rowed us from the sailboat out to a little island we saw in the distance. It turned out that the whole tiny island was surrounded by oysters beds!
We wandered the whole place, stepping carefully and taking lots of photos. Besides the oysters, we found lots of other sealife (starfish, fish fish, hermit crabs, crab crabs, sea anemones, seagulls, clams, limpets, barnacles, and several species of snail).

in reply to justbob • • •The image features a quote written in a gothic-style font on a textured, parchment-like background. The text is centered and reads: "In times of tyranny and injustice when law oppresses the people, the outlaw takes his place in history." The letter "I" is emphasized with a decorative flourish, and there are subtle decorative elements, such as a heart shape, near the top of the text. The overall color scheme is a muted brown, giving the impression of an aged document. The background texture resembles that of old paper, with visible creases and a slightly uneven surface, enhancing the historical feel of the image.
