1 year ago I switched from Mac to Linux for professional UX design work. In this article, I explain as simply as possible:
- Why I switched to Linux
- How you can do the same.
I cover design-specific concerns like:
- How to use Apple devices like the Magic Mouse in Linux
- Which design tools are available and how to install them
- How to find help if you get stuck

Dark mode & accessibility myth by Stéphanie Walter - UX Researcher & Designer.
Dark mode isn't always better for accessibility, you need to let users chose. And if you build a dark theme, make it accessible!Stéphanie Walter (Stéphanie Walter - Senior UX Designer, Mobile Expert, Conference Speaker, Blog writer and Teacher.)
We guess you've seen our calls for UX/UI pros. But why, you ask? Well, this is the challenge in front of us: fit all of the below into the player screen, while keeping it clean & usable!
📜 Transcripts
💭 Comments
🔢 Chapter titles
📋 Bookmarks with notes
💤 Sleep timer indication
👛 Donations to podcasters
We're soon meeting with the designers who'll hopefully make this happen!
Do you want to help make AntennaPod ready for the future? And do you have experience (or talent) in the domain of UX and/or UI design?
We're looking for folks to help us with embedding new innovative features on our player screen!

Made good progress this weekend on #IconBear , my upcoming open-source icon manager for Linux.
* Install pre-packaged icon sets to quickly start building your library.
* Icons are automatically categorised as "Outline", "Filled", "Duotone" or "Color" when you import them.
* Icons are loaded asynchronously, for improved performance.
Once work on importing, deleting and filtering sets is finished, I'll be looking to release the app 🙌
Now we're wondering: might we find among you (or your network) two experienced UX/UI designers who are willing to engage in a 6-month volunteer project? We need to come up with a way to fit a bunch of new functionality into the already busy player screen. We're looking for two people (one for each role) to help us with this.
Interested? More info? Send a DM or email keunes@mailbox.org.
Boosts appreciated!

Disabled buttons suck
Showing buttons as disabled until a form is complete might seem like a good idea. It is not. They usually create a lousy user experience and exclude many people with disabilities. Here's why disabled buttons suck and what to do instead.Hampus Sethfors (Axess Lab)

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
