This is an embeded video on a random page.
Yeah, I use #firefox containers, and everything google related is opening in one specific container to limit their spying on me. I opened the page in different container, thus I am not signed in.
Well ok, give me the link to the youtube video and I will watch it there? In the right container?
Youtube UX: no link to the video, but here you can watch some different stuff...
Just found this article stating that using the #language #attribute for individual words within a text is not a good idea when you want #ScreenReader users to have a good #UX. It's just overengineered #a11y.
I'm a bit surprised as you always read otherwise (as the article also mentions).
Are some screen reader users here that can share their experiences? I'm really curious now 🤔

Reminder: new home for the Inclusive Design Principles
inclusivedesignprinciples.info… the old domain has lapsed and now advertises gambling 😑
Dear {everyone who writes software that has logins or full-name usernames}
Please hire some people with diverse names. Stupid name rules like no spaces, no special characters, no lower-case starts to words in a name – let alone presence of so-called "conventional" name elements (surname, forename, middle names, etc.) need to be dumped in a ditch forever. #UX

#Linux #UX bugs like this are frustrating: starting a drag action pops the window forward, obscuring the target window. I'm using latest #Fedora but apparently this happens on nearly all DEs.
The smaller your display is (and the more nontechnical you are) the more likely you'll hit this. Apparently this has been known for a long time and no one cares to fix it? I'm just curious why.
"Not enough programmers" isn't a good excuse, this is a fairly easy fix. @cassidy Devs only use Terminal?

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.

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.

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 🙄️
