Why websites shouldn't indiscriminately block VPN users
I convinced a state senator that government websites indiscriminately blocking VPN users is bad. Here's the case I made, which you can use yourself to keep fighting the good fight.

Thoroughly enjoyed speaking at #UbuntuSummit today. Thank you organizers! I spoke about the need for new foundational #UX improvements to the Desktop UX. Very lively audience!

Open letter to the people who designed/built Jira…
I want to say very bad things but I’m trying to be a better person and speak more kind words than bad words but your product that I use only because it’s for my job makes me want to scream a little because OMFG stop please and revisit your UX because it needs so much help it’s so bad it hurts and I want some salve for my soul which is being crushed.
Sincerely,
Mark
I wish fedi would add some explicit content warning tags for things like NSFW, violence and politics etc and people can set in options to block posts with them.
I'd rather NSFW didn't show up in my timeline at all than having to tell my #ADHD brain not to press the shiny button.
#fediverse #activitypub #sharkey #mastodon
@KitsuneVixi my issue with content warnings is that it's 100% dependent on author compliance. As the fediverse grows and we get more naive consumers here, the #UX designer in me *knows* that they just aren't going to do that. Not through malice! You just can't get everyone to "behave as YOU want"
This overly optimistic belief that "people will just tag their posts properly" needs to be discussed more.

While I did get used to Liquid Glass somewhat by now, I still find it pretty irritating. This article really echoes my feelings:

#UX/UI is one of the most destructive bits of design theater that we, as a community have inflicted on ourselves.
It's Visual Design, not UI design. To assume "Design" is composed of just two parts is both crazy and confusing. The world sees UX/UI and thinks "Pixels"
I will die on this hill

I keep getting pushback on this but I'm gonna to keep saying it: We're NEVER going to free people from the clutches of Big Tech until we realize & respect that most computer users by far aren't actually computer users.
They don't give a shit about computers. They don't want to see a single line of code, ever.
They don't care about customization, "distros" or versions. They don't care about GUIs or desktop environments.
They just want to get to what they're doing; work or play.
@drahardja worth experimenting with https://keet.io - in addition to meeting your requirements it's also free and decentralised, so has no hosting needs, servers or infrastructural complexity at all.
@drahardja @anji to your point about OSS #UX, #Keet's is actually quite good IMO (though it is not yet open-sourced); and the onboarding is much smoother than it used to be (although initial sync of the app data still takes a little while).
Meets the #Discord crowd's needs of video & audio chat in large groups, which AFAIK #Matrix does not.
Found the talk I was looking for! (Thanks frens)

API design is similar to UI design, you know? :)
