I remember longing for proper skipping of descenders in #CSS. Now that skipping is default in most browser I’m often struck by how *terrible* it is for hyperlink legibility.
The first line in the image shows a linked line with text-decoration-skip-ink set to "auto".
The second line shows the same linked line with text-decoration-skip-ink set to "none".
Just by looking at the first line, you can’t say if it is multiple links or or not.
Perhaps something for @Seirdy.
I believe this is the first of its kind implementation on the web, i.e. first-letter navigation, so kudos to the Drive team! :) #accessibility #ux unmute.community/@payown/11236…

AI UX-Design Tools Are Not Ready for Primetime: Status Update

@thunderbird there is no option to show avatars in the message list, right? #thunderbird
Especially with a lot of messages per day, the messages list is just noise to me. Avatars would be great to reduce cognitive overhead. #ux #a11y
If you want to be really cool, you could try typing "@Gemini” followed by the prompt in your Chrome's address bar. See what you get back!
You are welcome!

Uz nejakou dobu pouzivam na @wrksart klienta phanpy.social. Je hodne minimalisticky. Krade IP z pokemonu, mastodon pokemon, ha, genialni! Hodne veci mi vadi.
Ale jeho naprosta killer feature a duvod, proc si ho pro doom scrolling hudby a dalsiho umeni na WRKS necham, je vizualni oddeleni boostu od originalnich postu.
Vubec nechapu, proc to jeste nema kazdy klient. UX je uplny no-brainer. Obri timeline neskutecne zprehledni.

I can understand why it seems confusing. I guess someone would expect quote mark to quote comment text into reaction instead of sharing it.
Maybe someone here can find better icon for it for better #UX ?

The next Community Office Hours on Nov. 29 at 10 AM Pacific Standard Time is all about Cards View, and we're inviting @micah to tell all! If you have questions about Thunderbird visual design - and Thunderbird in general - please send them to officehours@thunderbird.net!
Office Hours are a fun and informal way to get to know the awesome people behind Thunderbird. We'll post soon how to join us live - or to catch the recording. And get those questions in early and often! #Thunderbird #UX

Some very vocal #LibreOffice devs consider that client-side window decorations (for example #GTK HeaderBar kind of things) are "NOT a #UX #design issue", and that it's all about the burden of maintaining that across different OSes/platforms.
Yeah… I might buy their argument if LibreOffice had the guts to actually commit to only one (or two) UI layouts and toolkits, instead of maintaining *seven* UI layout choices, to begin with 🙄️

Float labels may put you in the cool club, but they’re terrible UX.
It’s much better if your input’s label:
1) is legible
2) is above the input
3) doesn’t move about
4) is not mistaken for an answer
Simple > clever

@thunderbird, I'm enjoying the updated Thunderbird 112 Beta UI, but I was wondering if you could give us the option to disable the tab area and/or the new top menubar depending on how we configure our UI. If I choose to use the left-most vertical menubar, the other areas seem redundant and take up space. Otherwise, I like the new direction! 👍
