I was actually there because i was considering creating an account and wanted to check it out.
Then they pop one of those and lost me for ever!
This is not an asshole design, this is the designers being assholes.... WTF do you mean the best thing in my life ???.. So the best moment in my life is me signing up to a digital platform.. 🤦♂️
What do you think asshole design means, exactly?
To me it's because of the different roles of the job
writing text on a mockup is usually the UX writer job, designing the interface is the UI designers job, if you go out of your way to write something like this, you know they're doing it on purpose, or at least they know what they're doing enough to push the user to act..
Asshole design to me has to do with the functionality like for example, you click on a button and it does something else, or designing a fake button where the user clicks but it doesn't do anything.. It's blank.. Or a piece of artwork that's offensive.. Etc
This is asshole writing ( it's more direct ), so that's why I said designers being assholes
It's all serving the same base design, so the distinction seems a bit moot, imo.
Still asshole design though. Why do they need my personal information (in this case an email) for me to be able to see public posts?
